| The vehicle according to the audi dealer has a bad automatic tcm transmission control module that causes the car to slip gears or not shift down when coming slowing down and then needing to accelerate. the vehicle will stay locked in 3rd gear and when pulling out on to the freeway or a busy street it makes it difficult to get up to speed. when parked on a slanted driveway or street the vehicle may not engage a gear once it has been selected and the car will roll down hill. | |||

| At around 55,000 miles, warranty over at 50,000, my friend (he owns a foreign auto repair shop in seattle) noticed that my transmission was a little jumpy. it might have been doing this earlier but i did not notice it because my wife was driving the car and they never know anything is wrong with the car until it falls part. my nearest authorized dealership was 45 minutes away and i need the vehicle for deliveries and pickups in my business so i waited until it got worse. at approx 65,000 miles i took it to a local dealer ($99) who stated that my transmission was going to fail to the tune of $ 6500. i called audi, they said that they could not do anything until i see an authorized dealer. that cost me $ 115 to tell me the same thing and they were going to charge me $ 8500. i asked why it is failing so early, he could not give me an answer. it's one of those things! asked if there was anything i could have done to prevent it and he said no. my buddy said drive it till it drops, it has 74,000 miles now, it's grinding real bad now and i do not have the $ 6000 to fix it, need some relief especially since others are having the same problem. i have owned over 20 cars in my life and i have never had a transmission problem. this is my first adn last german made automobile. i need help! | |||

| My car intermittently does not move when the vehicle is put in drive. this has only happened so far when the engine is cold. it happened to me yesterday as i was trying to pull out into an intersection and the car behind me almost hit me because it looked like i should be moving. i have a cvt transmission. | |||
