So i have an opportunity to pick up an 03 A6 with 113k on the clock for a crazy low price. The owner says it has a transmission issue (surprise surprise) but he said this about it:
Hi Michael - If you're driving the car normally, you'd never notice. If you're in a situation where it tries to shift at high RPM's, it will slip for a couple seconds.
I know this motor trans combo can be a headache but what are the chances this just needs a fluid change an filter to resolve it????
The car itself is beautiful and in amazing condition. The owner also said he had a shop (not dealer) recommend a new transmission but i know some shops simply just start there and dont try anything else.
Any thoughts are very appreciated.
