[s-cars] transmission

[Martin Baggenstos]

Hello Everyone,

  I am hoping that someone can give me insight onto the problem I am having
with my car. I have a 1995 S6 sedan with 136,000 miles and I was just
driving normally, came to a stop and then when trying to put the car in gear
it felt like the clutch became really loose and then as if the shifter just
dropped and was stuck and I could not get it in 1st gear.  I was able to
force it into 2nd or 3rd gear and get the car home but I am assuming that my
transmission is shot as it must not be the clutch or I would not be able to
drive with the car? Being that is the issue I am assuming that replacing the
transmission is expensive and was also looking for recommendations on where
to find 6 speed transmissions and from what model (RS2, euro urs6 model, A6,
etc.) as I am guessing it will cost me about the same or is there a better
option for me. Thanks.

Martin
