'03 LS Sport
Just picked up an '03 LS Sport for g/f. It fully loaded, sans power seats or interior lighting, but man the thing runs with the 5-speed Getrag. The question I have is, what makes the Getrag tranny different from any other manuals in the cavaliers?

Re: '03 LS Sport
Supposedly it holds up better than the older Isuzu tranaxles. My 2002 with the five speed even shifts well in the cold weather. There have been some having problems with the Getrag making noise in the lower gears, but doesn't seem to affect the durability of the transmission.

Its pronounced.. " get- rag " when you sound it out... what language does it sound like... and then you will hit your forhead and go... oh duh!... better engineering..

Re: '03 LS Sport
I'm not sure where you were going like that, but "get rag" sounds like an asian guy with a really strong accent saying "jet lag". Is the transmission similar to jet lag?

Re: '03 LS Sport
Isn't Getrag a German company?

Only thing is though Mercedes-Benz are German and very unreliable!!!! Anytrhin Getrag benefits from much more development as they are probably the most widley used transmissions!

Re: '03 LS Sport
I see quite a few sedans and 4-doors with moonies, it not just a sport or 2-door thing, ya know.
BTW, anyone think borg-warner would ever develop a bone-crusher for the Cav.'s?
