Good question. It would seem that MY2000 and later 722.6's are better, but who knows? Those of us that have had "updated" transmissions installed in our 97-99 cars (the 2000 "touch shift version is a little different yet) seem to be having much better luck, but only time will tell.
I have come to know a CLK Cabriolet owner through my mechanic, and comparing notes, I think his car's ownership costs well exceed my now-sold 911 Turbo. He's had the tranny fail, the harmonic balancer tear the engine bay apart, and spent thousands on the top mechanism, on top of the typical AC/ACC problems, AMM, and on and on. (on and on? like my sentence...)
The most reliable tranny MB has made in some time is the 722.4 four speed. Bullet-proof.
