The wave plate failure happened to my 08 Chevy Malibu ltz V6 with six speed transmission paddle shifters on steering ... My question is would I be able to put a transmission from a 2011 Chevy Malibu V6 with the six speed transmission GM fixed that problem in 2011 that's why I chose it for the swap I'm not trying too put another Sam e transmission back in only to have the wave plate break too if anyone has done this swap let me know how it turned out does your car drive since the swap let me know appreciate it thanks Chevy Malibu forum.com
