THE FIRST WEEK OF DEC 2014, I HAD BEEN HEARING A SPORADIC, WHOOTING NOISE FROM THE FLOOR OF MY AUDI TT 2004 (49,000 MILES). I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP ON 12/05/14. ASIDE FROM SOME OTHER NON-CRITICAL REPAIRS, THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND A CAUSE FOR THE NOISE AND IT WAS RELEASED. AS I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 12/12/14 TO PICK UP MY OTHER VEHICLE, I HAD SIGNIFICANT ISSUES. I WAS DRIVING ALONG NORTH AVE AT 35 - 40 MPH IN RUSH-HOUR TRAFFIC. AS I WAS DRIVING, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND BEGAN TO RAPIDLY SLOW. IN AN EFFORT TO AVOID A SERIOUS REAR-END COLLISION, I QUICKLY ENGAGED THE HAZARD LIGHTS AND SLOWED TO A STOP. ONCE STOPPED, I…

THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS VIOLENTLY BETWEEN 2 ND AND 3 RD GEAR. THERE WAS A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER WITH THE PEDAL DOWN COMPLETELY. AFTER RESEARCH HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THE DESIGN OF THESE TRIPTONIC TRANSMISSIONS WHICH CAN BE SWITCHED FROM MANUAL TO AUTOMATIC ARE FAULTY AND COSTLY TO REPAIR. I AM CONSIDERING A VALVE BODY REPLACEMENT WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. AUDI DOES NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG AUDI OWNERS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, THE TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY WENT TO NEUTRAL. WITH NO POWER AND AT 70MPH, I WAS FORCED INTO AN UNSAFE MANEUVER, CUTTING DRIVERS OFF IN ORDER TO GET ONTO THE SHOULDER LANE. I WAS TOWED TO A NEARBY AUDI DEALERSHIP AROUND 11:00PM. 3 BUSINESS DAYS LATER, THEY CALLED ME WITH THE RESULTS; THE MECHATRONICS (TRANSMISSION COMPUTER) WAS FAULTY AND WAS ESTIMATED TO COST $2800 FOR THE REPAIR. THIS ISSUE WITH VW'S DSG TRANSMISSION IS WIDESPREAD AS OWNERS AT VARIOUS MILEAGES HAVE REPORTED BROKEN MECHATRONICS UNITS. MY VEHICLE HAS 65K MILES AND REPLACING A TRANSMISSION AT THAT MILEAGE IS ABSURD. *TR
