Toyota did an incredible job building little anvils with the Yaris/Echo.

craig588 posted:That's almost like my Mazda Miata transmission longevity "test". There's a crack in the case so it can't hold oil so I figured I'd maybe be able to get another 1000 miles or so so bought a replacement but figured I need to let the old one die because there's no used market for a cracked transmission whatsoever so I might as well get the last of its life out of it. 15,000 miles later it still hasn't failed and isn't making any strange noises and I've confirmed a couple times it's actually leaking to empty by sticking a tube down the fill hole and seeing if I can pump any oil out. How bad is the crack? Maybe you can fix it with a modified version of this trick: https://jalopnik.com/5935258/the-super-hacky-oil-pan-emergency-repair-fix

craig588 posted:I like the idea of hacking a repair together because it keeps the old junk transmission going, anyone can Ship of Theseus a car together, but there's no excitement in that. No, I get it. Why throw out an entire transmission because it had a little booboo? That's not what our ancestors would have done (died of preventable illnesses).
