My 2003 D2a has 265k km on it now on the original automatic transmission. It was originally a city car in Sydney and has been modified by me to be a tourer (including remap, larger intercooler and VGT). The automatic transmission is original and still in great condition. I suspect the extended life span that I've got is due to replacing the torque converter with an Ashcroft HD unit at 180k km - as mentioned above this is usually the failure point and damages the rest of the transmission when it goes. It will be interesting to see how long mine lasts - part of me wants it to go so I've got an excuse to change to a manual (didn't get a manual originally as I have a top spec HSE model and wanted those extras but they only come in automatic)...
HP22, 24 was only used in the P38 4.6 AFAIK.
