Default A8 problems?

hey im fairly new to this site thought you guys may help me...i just bought an AUDI A8 1998 with 191km from an auction and im abit worryed about the transmission i think its doing some stalling and im unsure whats wrong with it,i know it may cost up to 20$k to fix it, i think my transmission is stalling abit when i press on the pedal or its doin sometin like switching gears randomly.. i bought my car for 10$k Canadian and i already put into it atleast 1.5$k with new brakes i had to replace my water pump and timing belt aswell.. would i be better off selling the car before there might occur any new problems.. my machanic said i might need to replace the suspension aswell which would cost me probly another 1k$.. but otherwise its pretty good.

Default RE: A8 problems?

Is it constantly stalling, or just at certain speeds? Why does the suspension need to be replaced? Get a second oppinion, sometimes shops like to take advantage. A new tranny shouldn't cost 20G's.
