TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTS HARD AFTER CHANGING FLUID

Q5 Bob

And??

Sorry to hear this.
Could you provide some details. For example:
1- year and model (for example 2.0, 3.0, TDI, etc). It may give insights on version of transmission.
2- what transmission oil did you use
3- did you flush transmission or drain it
4- where was work done: Audi dealer, major repair chain like Firestone, local shop
5- how many miles
6- type of service. For example, pulling trailers, predominantly highway or heavy traffic, etc

I am seeing a trend happening in this forum. This morning, over at the Q7 sub-forum, a first time poster also did the same thing. He was screaming (ALL CAPS) on his first post. Ranting about his dealer tech telling him iPODS do now work in his new Q7 which is clearly false. Now, I see this post. First time poster, screaming about his car's transmission not shifting properly and no other description or explanation of the problem.

What's all this screaming all about?

Higher mileage and a flush could = problems but since he gave zero info it's a bit hard to tell.

So far it's another one post wonder, with close to zero info. for diagnostics. Thus, no clue in post whether fluid change was even done correctly, procedure used, fluid used, state of tranny before change, etc.
