Automatic transmission difficult problem

Automatic transmission difficult problem

I drive an Audi A8 4.2 D2 model year 2002 , first registration 07/2002, 34,000 KM

Since I bought the vehicle with 22,000KM it happens again and again, that the automatic transmission in the 2. or 3. Stop gear if stopped and then hit again. This can be fixed by switching briefly into the manual switching lane to the left and paying attention to the display in the FIS.

I contacted my friend's dealer who read out the bugstore and couldn't find a bug. Even after the error occurred briefly, I moved all the appointments and drove to the friendly read out with no result, everything in order according to error memory.

That's a bad thing about the mistake that he usually only occurs every 5-14 days. In the course of troubleshooting, Audi also consulted technical customer service.

For the first time, a new automatic control unit was installed, but the error was still present. Then, as part of the used car guarantee, they decided to install a new automatic transmission because the mistake was suspected.

In the context of the Audi database, it was also obvious that the previous owner also knew of this mistake, which he kept from me despite demand; which he read to replace the automatic transmission oil or. The workshop caused this, after which the car was sold.

I wrote a letter to Audi asking for help and changed the workshop because human relations with some impertinence became unsatisfactory.

At Audi, the case was passed on to Audi customer service, which was caused by a technician from the company. ZF took on the problem. This then made a test drive in my presence at a new unloaded Audi workshop where the torque values of the automatic transmission were also measured, with perfect results.

An employee of Audi Customer Service was also present to monitor the progress. As a result, it was recommended to change the brake light switch. Unfortunately, this did not bring the desired success.

The engine control unit was also suspected of solving this error, which the technician from ZF pointed out, which an automatic transmission is primarily a command receiver and does not do so much by itself.

The test-probably replacement of the engine control unit was not possible with Audi since the car is no longer in production and therefore you have no access to such parts, as I was told there were only new parts.

It can only be exchanged if I can tell you that this engine-steer control unit is defective, only then would one be willing to cover the costs otherwise I would have to bear the costs myself.

Finally, this engine control unit was also renewed and I hoped that the error has now been fixed. After 10 days of error-free driving, I became more and more sure of my assumption, unfortunately the error occurred that the automatic transmission in the 2. ==References====External links==* Official website Day again and this is also expressed by the fact that the vehicle is only slowly moving and does not properly accept gas.

At the last motorway ride I still noticed that the engine does not pass under load cleanly when driving up the mountain and slightly jerks under load.

Does any of you have any idea what I can do?? I am at the end of the puzzle guessing and no one from Audi is willing to drive the vehicle once for 14 days, this was told to me unreasonably.

I was told that I had 2 years warranty on this automatic transmission repair, but slowly I have doubts about what else I could do to get the mistake out of the world?

Once it happened to me that I made a big Chrash on a busy multi-lane road on the left, almost because the car showed this error at that time again, which it did not take any gas and in the second half of the year it was the second time that the car was in the second half of the year. However, it was only because of the emergency braking of the other traffic agents that the matter ran out of steam again. With angry faces and interpretations, I was able to get out of the affair. I was sick all day and I was tormented with the question of what else to do?

Does anyone have any ideas?
