>Has anyone had any problems with their mid 90s A6 Q auto tranny?  Yesterday, after starting fine it would not move forward in drive.  The only way it would go forward is in first gear.  Halfway home it wouldn't even do that.  After dinner, I got it going in first & when I could go downhill I could manually shift from 1st to 2nd to 3rd to drive.  When I got to the stop sign I could not start in drive, had to start in 1st & got home.  It's now on its way to the dealer.  Anyone have any idea what I can expect to hear?  Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem on my '90 V8 (different transmisson), and it
turned out to be a bad speed sensor in the transmission. Part was
about $20, labor would have been about $250, but I did it myself. Just
plug'n play on the V8 transmission.
