I want something that might help smooth out the crappy audi transmission. I want something that will last atleast 30K miles. I know some of you guys really sweet fluid, that smoothes up the transmission like new, but it's not designed for extended use.

Yeah, but.. audi is known for using less than good tranny fluid. Many guys here have had good luck

Default Not true...

If you want to change your trans lubricant try either Mobile-1, 75W/90 GL4, or the GL-4 stuff made by RedLine. Both are pretty good and pretty expensive.
