Are the CVT issues on the B7 now sorted?
I have the B6 and crapping myself that the CVT will go. Rather than wait it out and lose 8k for a new CVT, i'm better off selling and adding the 8k towards a newer B7...
But a manual is a lot harder to sell on where I live, so tell me, are the CVT issues a thing of the past on the B7's ? Thanks in advance. |
Simple answer...No.
Why? Cause it was a poor design to begin with that remained unchanged with the B7 model. |
I had a CVT in my B6 and traded it at 100k with no problems. I am at like 85K on my B7 CVT with no problems.
If you have to have Auto, the Quatro will not come with a CVT only FWD's do. I really don't like the CVT just cause it's wierd. Get the Quatro and Tiptronic or manual and you will like it better anyway. |
Ya just buy a quattro, like 2wdblazer said, the quattros dont have the CVT, its just an auto transmission. Its the fwd's that have the CVT. Or just be a real man and buy a manual :P

i like that analogy. ive noticed that with this cvt trans, until i put it into sport mode haha.

So my 08 A4 Avant S-Line Quatro doesnt have the CVT then? It's a tiptronic with paddle shifters
|
Nope, quattro doesn't have CVT.
