Default transmission problem and engine mount

hy guys, i got a transmission problem before 1 month. i got that the light at the desk board for "PRND" TURN ON RED AND WHEN EVER I TRY TO CHANGE THE GEAR , MY CAR IS SHAKING. THEN I RESER THE CODE FOR TRANSMISSION BY SCANNER AND EVERY THING FINE. BUT AFTER SOME TIME AGAIN I GOT A PROBLEM AND AGAIN I RESET THE CODE. BUT STILL AGAIN THE LIGHTS TURN ON.
NOW I GO TO MECHANIC, HE ADVICE ME TO CHANGE ALL PLUGS AND EMPTY THE FUEL AND FILL THE PREMIUM FUEL. BUT AGAIN SAME PROBLEM. NOW I GOT THAT MY 2TRANSMISSION MOUNT AND 2 ENGINE MOUNT BROKEN, SO MECHANIC SAYS IT MAY BE THE REASON FOR TURN ON THE LIGHTS OF TRANSMISSION.
NOW MY CAR AT SERVICE STATION AND THEY R CHANGING THE ALL MOUNTS AND THEN THEY WILL GOING TO FIX THE CODE FOR TRANSMISSION.

SO DO U THINK THAT AFTER FIXING THE MOUNTS I WILL NOT GET THE PROBLEM OF TRANSMISSION.
NOTE: WHENEVER I RESET THE TRANSMISSION CODE , CAR RUNS SMOOTH BUT AFTER CHANGING SOME GEARS AND THEN MY LIGHTS TURN ON AND CAR IS SHAKING WHILE CHANGE THE GEAR IN REVERSE.
PLS TELL ME THE PROBLEM.

I doubt this will fix the problem. Pull and post the codes, check the trans fluid level.

You need to get the trouble codes out of the transmission to know what the problem is. You need VAG-COM or some other electronic tool to read the codes stored in the transmission's brain.

You also need to check the fluid level. If the car was at a body shop, they may have drained out some fluid accidentally during repairs.
