problem after rebuild..... i just got my a4 tranny rebuilt a month ago....i accidently hit it in neutral from drive while at WOT. Then the car would go into 3rd or 4th. i got stronger clutch s put in. Now just the other day i was driving the car not hard or anything and all of a sudden it started slipping going into 3rd (yes it is an a4). then after a few min it wouldnt go into 3rd or 4th at all. i drove it to the shop that rebuilt it and th said that my speedometer that connects to the tranny wasnt working. I said "that would cause the problem"? they said yeah and put in a new speedometer. I picked up the car and all was well til i got close to home then it started slippinginto 3rd again
i called the guy back now he says it is prolly the neutral safety switch. i dont believe him.....would the neutral safety switch cause the tranny to slip ...sometimes it just revs up in 3rd and everyone in a while catches, but only if i hardly give it throttle. anyone have any ideas? could it be the clutches again? thanks alot in advance

i have had that problem twice out of the four times(blue clutches raybestos) that i have broken my tranny. it could be ur servo or ur clutches for third n fourth might be burnt this happens when a seal is not put on correctly seems like they r giving u the runaround.

... thanks guys thats what i thought...i paid 1650 bucks to get it rebuilt then i had to pay another 50 to get the speedometer put in, and that wasnt even the problem. Should i ask for my 50 bucks back since it wasnt the problem? The guy told me he put in stronger 3-4 clutch packs also, just 1 month ago. im so frustrated. what should i tell him? to take the tranny apart? do i have the right to do that? it is under warranty.
