Just bought another B2 w an auto. It had a broken flywheel, replaced it. Drove it for a week, broke it again. The bolts had backed out of the tranny. I'm assuming this caused undue stress and caused the failure. Going to redo it this week.
Question is, has this happened to anyone else?
 
Yep; same thing twice on my '90 B2. Second time around I used Loktite on the tranny bolts AND added lock washers. Seems to be a fairly common problem on the 2.9 with the A4LD.
