you are right, there is a mechatronic in the ZF tiptronic and it is either bad or the sensor inside is dirty. my car has a rebuilt title so the dealership won't work on it, but they did tell me that was likely the problem.

There maybe differences in transmission specs according to which country the OP lives in. He didn’t post location so the spec could be for Outer Mongolia where gear shifts are supposed to clunk!

Not the "where do you live" post again... I was just waiting for @DB22 to add this... Lol.
As for the OP, get the vehicle to an indy mechanic At the very least you'll need to change the tranny fluid and filter and while at it, inspect the mech unit and possibly replace it.

If you want info on different versions of the cars offered... Those are quite readily available in each country specific product brochure by model.

So what exactly is the value of this, other than data integration Furthermore there's no QA on the data, since it's user supplied.

You obviously don’t understand the value of location as you don’t post it but the others who understand that there are numerous versions of the “same” car then location is very important to understand the poster and it helps the respondents to consider the variations that occur in other locations than their own.

I just been checking every countries versions of the Audi A6 and I should be done by next week. Of course, it would save me looking up Every country if the user posted a specific location.

I don't post location info in my header....but everyone on this forum who's known me would take very little effort to figure out where I'm located. I wish you best of luck with your data cross-reference.
As for product info, this is pretty useful: https://www.audiworld.com/model/index.html

This is a US model. I live in Utah. Here every 3.0T Quattro is ZF 8 speed tiptronic. I took the card to the dealership and they suspect the mechatronic, but won't continute to diagnose or fix it because the card has a rebuilt title and evidently company policy does not allow them to work on those
