I thought it stood for Continuously Variable Transmission?

But yes, this is Multitronic

Dont buy it though unless its got a 7-plate clutch fitted, the earlier versions are very well known to be total rubbish and need to have a 7-plate clutch conversion & other work doing to them normally after the warranty has expired & often at great cost to the owner!

I've recently went to service to fix the 6-gear multitronic gearbox. My car was juddering in low speed when accelerating. Mechanic changed something in the inside and I cant tell what that is but it looks like some kind of rings with aproximately 5 inch radius and it has cogs on inner side. I can see that gearbox still have 6 gears, nothing changed. Can I find out did he put 7-plate clutch or he changed some completely other part? I've noticed that there was whole bunch of that rings maybe 10 or I'm wrong?

i thought being a 2007 the gearbox would be ok or i have heard wrong. i am soon to replace my car which has the multitronic, and looking at newer a6 poss 06 plate, which has to be auto. do these still have problems, if so think it will be change of brand. even though like the audis.
