M93LE Auto Trans in I6 S3 Sedan will be same as I6 S3 wagon?

[arm79]

The autos are the same, same, same then same again for all the AU I6's.

Harsh 1 - 2 and 2 - 1 is usually to do with a problematic S5 solenoid. I can't imagine you getting much change out of $300 to swap the S5 and then it doesn't guarantee a fix nor that there aren't other gremlins hiding in there.

So if the sedan box is good, its probably the simplest and most cost effective fix.

Thanks very much for confirming that.
In theory it seemed like the best thing to do.
But someone said to me the wagon auto could be different to the sedan...so off down the rabbit hole I went.
