Nice forum, lots of readers but I figure few people actually work on their own cars! <img border="0" src=smileys/smiley11.gif border="0">

I suspect you might have an electrical problem. While I am not familiar with this particular transmission and model I have had two Audi's and electrical problems for 10+ year old cars is very common. Audi transmissions are also notorious leakers. Did you check fluid level and pull any codes of the ECU?

 

yea i checked the oil was real burn like, the dealership said that it could be caused by the front seal leaking and thus causing the friction plates to "weld" together.

i'll start to look around. what do you mean the selonoid? where is that located on the tranny? i sapose it internal. i know a couple of people that might be able to find you a tranny do you need the whole thing or just parts.</P>


thanks,</P>


craig</P>

 

also if your friend ever needs to have a good rebuild let me know, i have a local shop that said they can rebuild the tranny for 1800 that with the labor parts removal and installation. does that seem like a food price. they puta 3 yr. warrenty on them. but he did say the if there were major problems like a cracked case it could be as much as 2200.</P>


thanks,</P>

The solenoide are not sell separate (manager told me) it comes with a module, each sol has is module... I did opened manual tranny and its quite long and expenssive job, but never an auto one, and ll never do that without special tools and knowledge.</P>


I only need those parts:</P>

<FONT color=#0000ff size=1>Complete 200TQ 1989.5 1990+(i mean the flat type flywheel) clutch (flywheel, pressure plate and disk), used ;-). </FONT></P>


<FONT color=#0000ff size=1>OR20V turbo complete clutchOR only the 20V Turbo pressure plate ll be appreciate. Its from S4 before 1998 i guess. S4 1993 or so it s fine.</FONT></P>
