gearbox

I have a 2014 A4 petrol manual (B8.5), front wheel drive with around 20k miles. A few months ago, the clutch started slipping so I took the car to a local indie garage (Audi wanted 3k for the repair...) who replaced the clutch and flywheel (both of which had definitely worn at a low mileage??)...

Hi. Looking to have my standard manual 6 speed box rebuilt & upgraded in the Autumn when I put the car away for winter and would like any recommendations of a reputable company that could help. It has covered 96k although the rest of the mechanicals are less than 5k old, so last thing to sort...

Hello newby here but looking for some help with an automatic gearbox type. My daughter has bought a few days ago a 2006 A3 1.6 petrol sport back. It has an auto box. I had an A3 a few years ago with a DSG so was expecting the same. It was a bit slammy from 1st to second when cold so I thought...

Hey, Does anyone know the gearbox code for the BEX engine? Needs to be 4wd. Trying to find a box ASAP as mine appears to have seized.

Just wondering if anyone has had anything similar on their b8 s4 or a4 Its started with pretty much no prior signs of deterioration. Mines only done 47k, fsh, it’s whining like a trooper at the moment. No play in any of the bearings I’ve just had the front tyres done and that’s done nothing...

Hey there, I had a bit of a panic this morning with the fear of a possible gearbox issue. I was at a red light and noticed that when it was time for me to move, the car didn't move forward when I released the brake and even rolled back a little. I had to apply power and it revved a little and...

I had this message and have not found this solution in my search of forums etc so I will share it. It started as intermittent, became permanent and then it started holding on to the key because it said it was not in Park. The gear indicator lighting also behaved erratically. Fault code was...

Hi Folks, I am slightly confused so, I thought I'll check it with the most helpful lot first ... I was under the impression that like on A4,5,6 etc the Stronic box on the A3 also needs regular servicing after 38k miles. So, I booked in the car with Oxford Audi today. I just received a call...

Hello all I have a 2017 Audi A4 2.0 TDI S-Line S-Tronic. Some time ago, I noticed I could hear a 'clunking' sound the first time the gearbox switched up from 3rd to 4th gears after starting the car. Every other gear change after that, there are no unusual noises - only the first time from a...

hello everyone so tonight was driving the car having fun and then I pulled over then let the engine cool down/idle for some time and then started it up and went to pull away in auto mode and it jolted as I pull off gently. I drove round trying to find out what what’s, so I found out that it...

Hi, Is there anyway to get the shift point changed from 1st to 2nd as the car seems too upshift to quick in D & S sometimes causing the car to feel a bit sluggish. If I drive in M and change into 2nd later, it feels much more fluid and I wish it was like that in D. Any help? Cheers.
