Hello everyone at audiworld and thanks for checking out my thread.
I am having some trouble with my 99 audi a8 which is an awd 4.2 v8.

The problem(s)

Blue fuse carrier number 3


I have been running my car without a fuse for a while now due to the reason that if I put the proper fuse into the fuse slot, I am unable to shut my car off.. I can fully pull the key in the off position and then pull it out and it will still be running, and am able to put it in reverse and drive however reverse feels like there is some resistance when the keys in the off position, like it doesn't want to quite slide into reverse.

Second oddity

I have tiptronic (slapshift) that I have been using because if I have it in just the regular old fashioned "D"rive gear, I will get odd RPMS through out my gears such as jumping up half a notch then burping back down to normal, expecially while going up hill. It's not really troublesome to me because I actually enjoy picking when to shift... but if I ever want to sell this thing that might be a turn off to some.

I can get a video describing this problem if I am not wording this clear enough.
