Audi Auto Transmission Repair--Low Buck

[Mann Law <mannlaw@indy.net>]

	Wrote a long post on this yesterday, but, apparently did not make 
it to the list.

	Problem:  Auto not shifting up through the gears from stop.  
Mis-shifting, general feel like tranny was headed south.

	Fix:  Lift car and pull governor plate off left side of trans.  
Remove governor cover, pull governor out.  Midway dow governor shaft is a 
small hole.  This was plugged with a gunky substance.  Clean everthing, 
install [see Bentley 38.2 - 38.5], replace fluid.  Works like a charm now.

	Call to dealer *after* the fix describing problem, reply?  
"Sounds like the transmission is going to need replaced".  This is 
exactly why I don't go there:)  Wonder how many $3,000 tranny's have been 
sold to repair this problem.  This is an easy job boys.  Couple hours 
max, the first time.  After that, 30 minutes?
