Uhhhhh, no. You haven't heard about the 00-01 tranny problem? It's actually quite dangerous. Sometimes (just randomly) when you are driving, for whatever reason, the tranny will either downshift suddenly or put itself into reverse...

Think of this in 5 speed terms.... you're cruising at 65 in 4th and all of a sudden you slam it into 1st or reverse.... the sudden lower gear causes a nasty skid possibly killing you or others...

but small/minor auto tranny problems could be an early symptom.
