The transmission started making a failing halfshaft bearing noise. A used 82k mile transmission was under 400, so my mechanic and I figured it would be cheaper and more reliable to replace rather than repair, so we went that route. Replaced the clutch at the same time. I would have liked to get more than 196k miles on the original transmission, but I can't really complain.
