<p>[QUOTE="Misesian, post: 9034216, member: 144423"]The automated manual transmissions, AMTs, are not prone to problems. The older Eaton Ultrashifts are clunky because you have an Eaton computer talking to an OEM computer and they don’t speak the same language. The new Eaton Endurant does not have that problem. The iShift and DT12 have an advantage being an integrated power train product. An AMT does not improve fuel mileage vs a good driver. It gets better fuel mileage through integration and down speeding.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
