you have to think that something else is wrong with that transmision with that kind of disintegration. Or the wrong fluid put in at som epoint ?
regardless , that is pretty damn amazing..
well i guess more shocking than amazing , shocked at the pics but amazed the car was still actually moving.

Great pick to show the "Don't ever change your fluid or you will ruin your transmission" crowd.

Limp MOde FIX
Ok so my 2004 Audi A4 went into limp mode.
1What DO I do scant for truble codes.
2.Find out its selanoid 3 code. SImple right ....NoT I dont replace a selanoid because it is a rooky move and I am no rooky mechanic.
3. I drop the pan change the fluid filter clean connections. No Respnse Still limp mode
4. Replace my TCU (with exact same number otherwise youd have to program it) and what you know problem fixed.

I think you have to play it by ear. In most cases, you'll see some residual in the pan, which is normal. In that case, I wouldn't touch anything other than the filter. If the pan is full of crap, maybe you need to dig a little deeper.

Hi Guys,
From the pictures, which component is the sensor? Is this sensor in the valve body? If so, what does it look like?
Sorry, to jump in like this, but I'm having the same issue as yours in my 02' A6 4.2L I can start up the car and drive it around, but it will goes into limp mode within 20 or so minutes.
Thanks for any feedback.

My dad used to say it's better to be lucky than good, but I prefer to say the harder (or smarter with today's computer stuff) I work the luckier I get….
