Re: HELP!!! A4 TRANS FAILURE DriveaTA- I dont want to come off rude........if I lost the verter bolts while driving wouldnt you think it would make some kind of noise? Three loose bolts would sound pretty fuggin bad if the car was running! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
As I already know, the pump failed not the the bolts coming off. Im just stumped as to how the car ran fine for over a week if the veter was not installed properly. Is it even possible?

Re: HELP!!! A4 TRANS FAILURE the same exact thing happend to my car..i put a new converter on and did hear 3 clicks, but i went and drove it, and then bam 2 miles later it wouldnt go forward anymore...motor would just rev up in gear and car wouldnt move.. i talked to a service guy at dealer and they said very unlikely pump could have failed. and more likely that trans burned up.. <img border="0" alt="[bullshit]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_bs.gif" /> i dont know and they may be right but i doubt that...
the same exact thing is happening in both of our cars, this sucks

Re: HELP!!! A4 TRANS FAILURE 00NBMcamaro- yeah it sucks alright, I need to figure out why this happened. The pump would have busted from the get-go. Not a week and a half later. I think it was bad from the begining.
Later,

HELP!!! A4 TRANS FAILURE New 2800 Vig/Trans cooler went in over a week ago. So this past Friday the car took a SH*T on me going down the Tollway with my girlfriend. It was in drive and just stopped moving when throttle was applied. The TRANS PUMP TOOK A DUMP ON ME!!
Here is my question?...is it possible for the car to have driven fine for over a week and a few hundred miles if the pump and verter were not clicked in three times?
Im 99.9% sure that it was clicked in 3x's. It never made any odds noises or nothing. It just quit!! Thanks in advance.
