I have a tranny shop take a look at it. They told me that it is most likey the clutch. Also the 2 front motor mounts are bad and one of the tranny mounts is broken. I brought it into the shop yesterday and that what i know so far. They did not drop the tranny yet. They gave me a quote of $1950.00 for the clutch replacement with a better preformance clutch.

450 for the clutch, 70 for fluids (bullshit) and about 1300 for labor and the rest taxes. I have the papperwork in my truck. Yeah I was pissed and went there bitching to the guy for an hour beacuse I found another place that would do it for 1400, but they do all the work on our patrol vechiles at work, and they do not fix stuff half the time, but regardless it was alot cheaper. They said they would give me a 1 yr 12000 miles warrranty on the clutch. I hate dealing with shops unless I know people who have been there. I told the guy straight up your ripping me off. He said he was going by the parts and labor by the book. They charge $88 per hr for labor and they said it is oging to be a 13.5 hr job. BULLSHIT.

So I just put down $3,756.30 for all of this including labor-

RS4 Clutch
RS4 Flywheel
RS4 Tranny mounts
RS4 Motor Mounts (front)
RS4 Front Axles (both)
Fluids Ect...

I am getting stock price of the flywheel, no labor on front axles, no labor on tranny mounts, Does think sound like a good deal or am i getting the shaft?
Thanks.

hey there are two pins on the outside of your transmission that have an Allen wrench insert and this holds together all the shifter linkage inside the transmission what happen is you had shirred one of these pins and that casued your linkage to go out of wack. i know this cause it happened to my buddies car when i was driving and i fixed it for him for 20 bucks the cost of the part. let me know if that was the problem
