Question 2005 3.0 tdi Quattro Gearbox / Limp Mode

Hi guys, hope you're all well!

Was driving my A8 and gave it full throttle. It flashed up PRNDS and kicked into neutral. I stopped the car and started it again, and it won't go into any gear. Put it in D it does nothing, put it in R does nothing, put it in S, nothing. It had an intermittent fault where it was moody going into gear 4,5,6 but this was not often, aswell as an intermittent limp mode with the flashing glow plug sort of light (solenoid error code). Is it the gearbox ECU and how can I get this car moving?

Thanks,

Makhana.

It's possible it's the TCU.
What DTCs are you getting in the Auto-Scan ?

Post up a complete un-edited scan (obscuring VIN if you wish) and I'll have a look. -Jake
