tranny question I own a 00 Z28 A4. Car has 84,000 on her. I serviced trans around 4000 miles ago. I noticed when I have the shifter in 1st gear it stays in that position until shifted into 2nd. That part is fine. I noticed that if I have the shifter in 2nd and take off from a dead stop, I never hear or feel the trans shift out of first and into 2nd and stay there. Feels like it's taking off already in 2nd. I just always drive the car in over drive. The other day I was playing with the other gears and discovered this. Sound normal or do I have a problem ? Thanks

My understanding is that with the 4L60E, the tranny will not shift 1-2 when you put the car into 2nd gear. It will shift 1-2-3 from 3rd and over course, 1-2-3-4 from 4th, but will not shift 1-2 from 2nd, so what you are stating is normal.

I have noted that some not all 4l60e transmissions do that ,
