Hello
Currently running a B6 1.8t but fancy a change
I have seen a reasonable 98 A8 that apparently requires the gearbox oil seals changing. It is stated that this is a common fault and can cause intermittent changes from the auto box.
I appreciate that this could be due to low oil levels within the box. Has anyone ever come across this issue before and can changing the seals resolve the problem with gear changes?
I have seen the multitronic horror stories and wonder if I am going to go down the same route.
Many Thanks

New oil seals did it for me. Common problem but suggest independent like 4 Rings do the job. *********** will bury you!!
