Re: Audi a4 gearbox problem :(
Could be a lott of things but Nr 1 to check would be gearbox oil level.

Re: Audi a4 gearbox problem :(
Which automatic, multitronic or tiptronic? More detail of model etc. always helps for a faster answer.

Re: Audi a4 gearbox problem :(
If it is a 'normal' auto then it should be the Tiptronc, Multitronic is a CVT gearbox. What has been done to the car recently, if anything?supersaiyan wrote:I have no idea, all I know is it's the normal auto.MarshallGTi wrote:like panic said, which auto? u got different types....

Re: Audi a4 gearbox problem :(
First try topping up the oil, if oil is short it doesn't select gears properly...
I got a similar issue on a 1999 A4 2.4 tiptronic... only takes reverse gear...
It if is a tiptronic, It take special oil, which is like R190 a litre at goldwagen.. Agent is about R200+....

Re: Audi a4 gearbox problem :(
That special oil is R135 per liter+ vat at ZF which are the people that build the box. Phone 011 457 0000 and speak to Jaco for any audi gearbox oil including the new lifegaurd 8 in the latest tiptronic and multitronic boxes. They can also help with your problem.

Re: Audi a4 gearbox problem :(
Came across this once, turned out to be the valve body and solenoids that were the trouble - however when we removed the cover that houses the valve body/solenoids and cleaned it out, changed the sieve/filters and filled up new oem trans fluid, the problem went awaysupersaiyan wrote:1996 A4 1.8 AT

Re: Audi a4 gearbox problem :(
Hi guys my Audi A4 2.4L tiptronic stays in I think 3rd gear and if checked the oil and seems fine. If any of you know of something that could be wrong would like to fix it. If looked at the sensor and it seems fine I also looked at my Fathers A6 with the same motor in and gearbox and saw that there was something missing on mine and went ant bought it and it didn't change a thing.
Thanks guys.
Thanks guys.

Re: Audi a4 gearbox problem :(
impossible to guess without seeing what it does. Can be many many things. selector, valve body, solenoids, box itself, oil pump issue. Without being able to plug a diagnostic in you can guess forever.
As usual no location given so can't even refer you. But if JHB try all-o-matic in selby

Re: Audi a4 gearbox problem :(
If put the diagnostic on it doesn't pic up anything but I keep hearing a clicking sound and I'm thinking it could be the one of the solenoids the oil is fine and everything but that clicking sound doesn't go away.
