i have been slow with the updated news. but what's wrong with the new engine and tranny? I think mostly are the 02 early 03 tranny with some "weak" first gear. and your famous clutch judder. the most I've heard about engine issue was the cylinder closer to the turbo was misfiring. But I've only hear of VERY few (1 or 2) cases and again, it was on a 02.

I think it would have been taken care of cuz i knew they had problems on 02's and they haven't changed anything on 04's except the cosmetic kind(lights,scoop,sests,gauge setup etc...)
I have an 04 but no problems yet(hopefully)
