Ossa Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I have an 2008 A6 2.0 tdi with no problems till now. Startup sounds ok if the engine is Cold, but once it's been warmed up & switched off, the startup then sounds like a very loud rattling noise, I've spoke to a local garage & they said it could be torque converter ! I am no mechanic so i would appreciate any help or advice. Cheers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niedzial1983 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Ok is it auto or manual ? Also torque conventer only exists in 3.0tdi quatto zf6hp19a gearbox , so the garage is talking rubbish 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossa Posted June 15, 2018 Author Share Posted June 15, 2018 Thanks Piotr , its an automatic. I have been told by two garages that its a torque converter but took it to a specialist the other day & they told me basically the same as you ( it does'nt have TC in a cvt box ). Suppose i should of went to a specialist in the first place 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickT Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Hey Ossa - did you work this out? Same issue on the A6 Avant 2007.... auto diesel. Rattling on acceleration. Mechanic suspects torque converter./ .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
