Audi A4 1997
Suddenly, I am having a problem with my A4. I took it to the dealer to have
my oil changed. I was told later that I needed a new transmission. After I drove my car home, I later noticed that my car would not move in reverse. Everything else works fine, but the car will just not move in reverse. I have never had any transmission problems -- what could cause this, do I need to start looking for a new transmission? Help! |

That should be your LAST resort, not your first. <sheesh> Reverse problems could be caused by a failing or failed clutch, but you don't mention whether this is a manual or automatic. Do you find oil leaks on the ground after the car has sat for a while? I'd phone the dealer and see what they say. |

Did you have any issues with it prior to bringing it in for the oil change? Is it an automatic or manual? Dan D '04 A4 1.8Tq MT-6 Central NJ USA |
