    nevermind...i just called aamco and they said that 40k was way too early for a manual tranny change. the guy told me to come back after about 75k, heh...i guess too much time has elapsed for me to delete this thread...can a mod please remove this?

    thanks!

    Ya i was about to say. Manual tranny fluid last longer than auto. replacing it could make your clutch slip.
