Transmission slipping?

Re: Transmission slipping?

No, its just a regular auto. Its an 01'. I don't beleive they had a tiptronic option.
Thanks guys, any opinions on shops to take it to? I tend to steer away from dealerships. I dont feel like bending over

Re: Transmission slipping?

fluid is either thick as mud and/or low...or your TC is toast.

GERMANS can't build a proper auto tranny,it's all tin and crap.
should flush the fluid every 48k.
Good Luck..Drop the pan and look at the carnage.

Re: Transmission slipping?

Im hoping its the 1st option.
I only have 124'000km's on the car.

Re: Transmission slipping?

my guesses:

1. fluid is low
2. tranny is done

I have an automatic transmission. For the past 2 or 3 weeks, it seems like its been slipping.
When I start out i need to rev it up to about 1300 rpm or so before it seems to move. It used to move forward as sson as I took my foot of the break like a normal auto should. It also rolls back on hills like a standard does, until it revs up. It also seems to be rough switching gears from 3rd to 4th. Its starting to be a little rough from 2nd to 3rd as well.
I was wondering if anyone knows what could be the problem, and what I could do to fix this.
Thanks
