Gearbox issue

Featured Replies

Hello all, I’m new to the forum.

I have a Audi a4 b8 3.0 tdi avant

Recently I’ve encountered issues when selecting drive from reverse. The car cuts out, not all the time but particularly when I shift it quickly.

The car also struggles to reverse up steep hills and cuts out.

Yesterday I tried to pull away from a stationary position at slow speeds and it cut out.

I’m hoping to find a gearbox specialist that can carry out the repair work.

I’ve included the diagnostic report.

Any recommendations and guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Aidan

Hi Steve, I had the gearbox oil changed last week, unfortunately that hasn’t helped 

Cheers Steve

Just posting an update to let you guys know, another gearbox oil change has sorted the previous issues. There was an oil leak on the Gearbox. Happy days 

That's right, I noticed a horrible smell when driving the car and it turned out the gearbox oil was leaking onto the exhaust. The garage did an oil change again free of charge.
