Default i have a 99.5 tip, and have auto tranny problems could getting vag-com figure help,any opionions pl

ther are no codes coming form the tranny i have not brought it to a audi dealer (once to a independent but he had no idea)bec i do not have the kind of maney to be paying $70/hour, would i save maney as far as finding the problem by buying vag-com. or just bring it to the dealership. what can vag-com do for me, could a dealership do more yet with ther dagnostics equipment. any help would be greatly appriciated, sietske

How do you know that there are no codes? Did you already scan it with VAG-COM? Auto-Scan please!!!

i read some where that if ther was a code al the letters on the dash would light up red, plus i brought it to a independent dealership before , the guy told me that he couldn't find anyhting, i am not sur eif he knew what he was doing, would a autoscan give me a clearer picture of what is goign on, i have seen a autoscan list before but i dont really know what it all means. thanks for the help

Default Not all fault codes result in the MIL and most independant shops use OBD-2, which is not very useful
