I was leaving my house last night and had put the car in gear and was just taking off. Suddenly I heard a thump from underneath and lost the transmission. ie, the engine revved fine but no power was being transmitted to the wheels in any gear.

I've posted in another area about the actual problem, but I'm looking for recommendations for reliable audi mechanics in the DC metro area, preferably Northern Virginia. Can any of you recommend someone?

Thanks!

Andrew

 

forgot to say, I have a 1999 A4 Avant, 2.8 liter, 5 speed manual, about 111K miles.
