Transmission not shifting correctly? for some reason my a4 will not shift into 2nd gear... or 4th gear.. it will rev like forever in 1st... go into 3rd and never go any further.. just started doing that this morning on the way to work.. any possible ideas?
Mine did the same thing when I first bought it and it ended up being the forward spragg. Changed it out and its been perfect ever since.

well they tore the tranny apart.. 2nd and 4th gear bands are snapped... solenoids are screwed.. and need to replace the drum... pisses me off, just had everything built in it lil over a year ago.. tranny only had lil less then 30k on it
While you are at it you should go with a nice built unit from one of the fabulous trans sponors on the site like Performabuilt or FLT or Ace. I have a Performabuilt lvl 2 and so far I love it. Shifts super hard and fast and the customer service is fantastic and the time from order till I received the trans was only 6 days. Don't let some **** poor shop do it and screw it up. Just my .02. Good Luck.
ok wow. i was going to suggest something rare that ive experienced, but yeah, you pretty much got all the basic f-ups that occur. hehe sorry to hear dude.

well i dont really have the money for a whole new transmission just yet.. i got someone that said he will rebuild it with kevalar bands in it to hold up better along with replacing anything else that messed up for a lil less then $600.. buddy of mines Grandfather that works on promods *shrugs* figured why not give it a shot just to get the car moving agian for now
