1.4 turbo with manual 6 speed (M32) transmission warning!

Picture of miles plz....

And you have the Turbo

If he had the turbo replaced and there was a problem with it, I'm guessing they sent it in to be inspected to figure out if it's a single event or could be a problem across the board.

Just a couple of tidbits on manual trannies...may not be directly applicable to the M32, just more data.
Our '98 Civic 5-spd manual had a trans fluid change interval of 90K miles.
Our '04 Mazda 3 5-spd manual had no change interval. It was not mentioned in the owner's manual, so I called Mazda and the guy said it is a 'lifetime' fluid.

For normal driving, no hot rodding, I'm not going to worry about it, unless it starts leaking.

my 92 chevy c2500HD pickup had an NV4500 5 speed manual. It also had lifetime fluid which was Castro Syntorque 75W85 I believe. I changed it at 180K miles and honestly noticed NO difference.

The truck was used for towing a lot before I bought it.
