INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Borg-Warner Automotive Diversified Transmission Products
Corporation, Muncie Plant Retirement Savings Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of the Borg-Warner Diversified Transmission Products Corporation,
Muncie Plant Retirement Savings Plan as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the
related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year
ended December 31, 1995.  These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.  

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.  

In our opinion, the Plan's financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the changes in net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.  

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedule of assets
held for investment purposes as of December 31, 1995 is presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic
financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  The supplemental schedule
has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic
1995 financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

BORG-WARNER AUTOMOTIVE
DIVERSIFIED TRANSMISSION PRODUCTS CORPORATION,
MUNCIE PLANT RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 1.   DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
     
      Borg-Warner Automotive, Inc. (the "Company") established the Borg-Warner
      Automotive, Inc. Retirement Savings Master Trust (the "Master Trust")
      with Putnam Fiduciary Trust, Boston, Massachusetts on April 1, 1994,
      pursuant to the Benefits Agreement entered into in accordance with the
      January 27, 1993 distribution of the Company's stock to the stockholder's
      of its then parent company, Borg-Warner Security Corporation
      ("BW-Security").  The BW-Security Master Trust (the "Prior Master Trust")
      was originally established on April 5, 1988 while the Company was a
      wholly owned subsidiary of BW-Security with eligible employees
      participating in the Prior Master Trust through the Borg-Warner
      Automotive Diversified Transmission Products Corporation, Muncie Plant
      Retirement Savings Plan, (the "Plan"). 

      The Plan was established on January 1, 1992 as a participant in the
      Prior Master Trust.  Effective May 31, 1994, the Prior Master Trust
      transferred to the Master Trust assets equal to Plan participant balances
      in the Plan under the Prior Master Trust as of  March 31, 1994 pursuant
      to the Benefits Agreement.
      
      The Plan is a defined contribution plan under section 401(a) of the
      Internal Revenue Code designed to provide eligible employees with
      systematic savings and tax-advantaged long-term savings for retirement.
      Borg-Warner Automotive Diversified Transmission Products Corporation,
      Muncie Plant (the "Muncie Plant") is the Plan sponsor.  Muncie Plant has
      assigned the Retirement Savings Plan Committee (the "Committee") to
      oversee the Plan and the Master Trust.  The Committee has appointed
      Putnam Investor Services, Inc. and Putnam Fiduciary Trust to perform the
      administrative, investment, and trustee services for the Plan and the
      Master Trust.  

      A complete description of the Plan procedures and provisions is
      contained in the Plan document.  Significant Plan features include: 

      Eligibility - Employees of the Muncie Plant may participate in the Plan
      if they have attained the earlier of (i) seniority as defined in the
      Collective Bargaining Agreement, or (ii) one year of vested service,
      provided, however, in either case, such employee is not eligible to
      retire as of December 31, 1990 under the Retirement Income Program.
      
      Participant's Account - A Retirement Savings Plan account is established
      for each participant in the Plan.  The participants' account consists of
      the following: 

      Company Retirement Account - The Company makes contributions to this      
      account on behalf of each eligible participant based on the number of
      hours for which such participant receives compensation, years of vested
      service and age.  No employee contributions are made to this account.





                                     - 4 -
<PAGE>   8



      Employee Retirement Account - Participants may voluntarily contribute
      from one to four percent of their compensation to this account.  The
      Company makes contributions equal to 75 percent of participants'
      contributions to this account. 

      Savings Account - Participants may voluntarily contribute an additional
      one to twelve percent of their compensation to this account.  No Company
      contributions are made to this account.

      Retiree Health Account - Participants may voluntarily contribute from
      one to three percent of their compensation to this account.  The Company
      makes contributions equal to 100 percent of participants' contributions to
      this account, up to $400 per year.

      CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE PLAN - 
      
      Prior to March 12, 1995: 

      The Company made contributions to the Company Retirement Account for
      all eligible employees based on the following: 

      -    $.28 for each hour for which the participant receives compensation
           from the Company, plus 

      -    $.20 for each hour for which the participant receives
           compensation from the Company, if the participant is (i) age 35 or
           older as of the preceding January 1; or (ii) has ten or more years
           of vested service as of the preceding January 1.

      Effective March 12, 1995:                

      -    $.30 for each hour for which the participant receives
           compensation from the Company, if the participant has not attained
           (i) age 35 as of the preceding January 1; or (ii) has completed ten
           years of vested service;                

      -    $.50 for each hour for which the participant receives
           compensation from the Company, if the participant is (i) age 35, but
           less than age 40, as of the preceding January 1; or (ii) completed
           ten but less than twenty years of vested service;

      -    $.60 for each hour for which the participant receives
           compensation from the Company, if the participant is (i) age 40 as
           of the preceding January 1; or (ii) completed twenty or more years
           of vested service.

      MASTER TRUST - Participants may elect to invest their Company
      Retirement Account, Employee Retirement Account, Savings Account and
      Retiree Health Account in one or more of the funds of the Master Trust
      maintained by Putnam Fiduciary Trust, other than the pending account and
      loan fund which are not fund elections available to participants. The
      funds of the Master Trust are as follows:

           Investment Contracts Fund - Invests in investment contracts
           with either highly rated insurance companies or major banks and also
           in short-term investments which provide liquidity. 

           Putnam Voyager Fund - Invests a significant portion of its
           assets in securities of smaller and newer issuers.  The fund may
           borrow money to purchase additional portfolio securities.  The fund
           also trades securities for short-term profits.  

           Putnam S&P 500 Index Fund - Invests primarily in publicly
           traded common stocks either directly or through collective
           investment trusts having a similar investment objective. A small
           portion of the fund s assets are invested in high-quality money
           market instruments and financial futures contracts.
 
           Putnam U.S. Government Bond Fund - Invests exclusively in
           securities backed by the full faith and credit of the United States
           Government, repurchase agreements, and forward committments with
           respect to such securities. Effective December 29, 1995, the
           Master Trust

                                    - 5 -
<PAGE>   9



          discontinued this fund as an investment option and participant's 
          investments in this fund were transfered to other participant elected
          investment options. No balance existed in this fund at December 31,
          1995. 

          The George Putnam Fund of Boston - Invests in a well-diversified
          portfolio of stocks and bonds.  

          Borg-Warner Automotive, Inc. Stock Fund - Invests in the common
          stock of Borg-Warner Automotive, Inc.
          
          Putnam Income Fund - Invests primarily in quality corporate and

          payments.  The fund became an eligible investment option in the
          Master Trust effective October 1, 1995.  

          Loan Fund - Invests in plan participant loans. Participant
          borrowings increase the Fund balance and principal repayments
          decrease the Fund balance with proceeds reinvested in participant
          directed fund investment elections.  The Loan Fund does not share in
          the dividends, earnings, and gains of the Master Trust. 
         
          Pending Account - Represents (1) forfeitures of nonvested
          account balances until applied against future Company contributions;
          (2) proceeds from the sale of assets prior to distribution to the
          newly elected investment fund.

      Participant interests in each of the funds are accounted for in units
      of value.  The following is a summary by fund of the number of units and
      net asset value per unit:

      VESTING - Fund assets attributable to voluntary participant
      contributions are fully vested at all times.  Fund assets attributable to
      Company contributions vest 100 percent upon completion of five years of
      vested service or upon permanent disability, death or attaining age 65,
      provided, however, the participant is employed by the Company on that
      date.

      WITHDRAWALS - While participants are actively employed, no withdrawals
      may be made from either the Company Retirement Account, the Employee
      Retirement Account or the Retiree Health Account.  Withdrawals may be
      made from the Savings Account at the participant's option subject to
      certain limitations.  Upon termination of employment, participants may
      elect an immediate or future distribution of the participants  vested
      account balances as permitted by the Plan subject to ERISA regulations.

      LOANS -  Participants may borrow up to 50% of their Savings Account
      balance with a minimum of $500 and a maximum of $50,000 limited to a
      single loan outstanding at any time.  Loan terms range from six months to
      five years, with interest charged at the rate established by the trustee
      for similar loans on the origination date.  No loans are permitted from
      the Company Retirement Account, the Employee Retirement Account, or
      Retiree Health Account.  

      PRIORITIES UPON TERMINATION - Although the Company has not expressed
      any intent to discontinue the Plan, it may do so at any time.  In the
      event of termination, the interests of the affected participants shall
      become fully vested.  The Plan assets then remaining shall be used to pay
      administrative expenses and benefits equal to the balance in the
      participants  accounts. 

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      INVESTMENTS - The Investment Contracts Fund of the Master Trust is
      stated at cost plus interest earned to date (i.e., contract value) as
      reported by the Trustee.  The contract value of the Investment Contract
      Fund approximates the fair value. The average yield for the Investment
      Contracts Fund was 6.9% for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994. 
      The Investment Contracts Fund is fully benefit responsive. Investments in
      all other funds are stated at market value as reported by the Trustee.  

        
      ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
      generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
      estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets
      available for benefits as of the date of the financial statements and the
      reported amounts of changes in net assets available for benefits during
      the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

      MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSES - Transfer taxes and brokerage expenses
      attributable to the Master Trust assets are charged to the applicable
      fund.  Any other expenses incurred in respect of Master Trust income or
      property are charged to the accounts of the participants, where
      applicable, or are paid in such manner as the Company determines.

      BENEFITS PAYABLE -  In accordance with the AICPA Audit and Accounting
      Guide, Audits of Employee Benefit Plans, the Plan does not record
      benefits payable to participants who have withdrawn from
      the Plan.  As of December 31, 1995, no benefits were due to participants
      withdrawn from the Plan.  

      RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain 1994 amounts have been reclassified to
      conform with the 1995 presentation.

3.    TAX STATUS

      The Plan obtained a determination letter on April 6, 1995 in which the
      Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed, was in
      compliance with applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. 
      The Plan's management believes it is currently designed and is being
      operated in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the
      Internal Revenue Code; therefore, no provision for income taxes has been
      made in the Plan's financial statements.


4.    FUND INFORMATION

      1995 and 1994, investment income from Master Trust, contributions from
      participants, contributions from the Company, and participants'
