[s-cars] transmission

[chris chambers]

Martin,

I'd start with the basics and make sure the linkage from the
shofter to the transmission is all intact, and no bushings
have failed. It could be something as simple as worn/broken linkage.

But if the trans has failed and you want a 6 speed transmission, then
I'd recommend looking for an EDU trans, I got mine from an 01 S4tt.
If you want to find an EDU transmission, look for wrecked 99-01 A6tt
and S4tt (twin turbo A6 and S4), that's what it came in. 

Don't get a DSY, it specs out the same BUT it's missing a notch in the
bellhousing that needs to be there to clear a sensor PLUS the DSY is
set up for an external cooler where the EDU doesn't require one.

Elijah used a DSY but had to notch the bell housing and rig up lines
for the inlet/outlet on the trans that normally would go to an external
cooler.
