Burning smells

[Neil Swanson <75377.3445@compuserve.com>]

I may know,

If you have a 100 (A6style) quattro or A6 quattro the seals where the
driveshaft fits into the trans are becoming real leakers.

We do several every week.  Now I can smell tham as I walk past a car as the
customer parks it.  I smell tham as I get the VIN from the windshield.

They drip slowly onto the cats and give that burning smell.  The exhaust
must be dropped to do the job.  

Out of warranty is I think 2.5-3hrs labor and a $16? part.

Get it checked if you have a late auto trans quattro.  5 speeds seem to
have no such problem
