Automatic Transmission Problem
Remember hearing something about this but I couldn't find anything in the forums.The Automatic Trans Shifter is difficult to put into drive and won't go into sport mode.I believe there was a problem shifter part in the early allroads? Anyone know of this?

In another thread the poster said he bought an uprated (high performance) TC from IPT for $675, don't know how this compares to the factory uprated part, but might be worth looking into.

How did you determine the torque converter has failed? The symptoms you describe sound like a linkage problem. I would first check to see if any debris (coins) have fallen down into the shifter mechanism.

This is definatley a Transmission problem.First started with reverse slipping and then loss of power on hills.The car is a 2003 and most pre 2004 models dont have the updated Torque Convertor seals.From what I have read and heard locally it is a common problem.
Lucky for me I bought extended warranty just have to wait and see what they say.
New Trans in Canada is 6000 plus the 17 hours of labour ++++
The Audi shop here does not do rebuilds just a swap?
Thanks for the feed back on IPT they have a new trans for around 4500

My understanding is they changed the seals, that's all I know, and that all replacements are of the newer style.....it sounds like there are two different problems being associated with the same symptom, problems backing up. One may cause the other.....
