a good day to everyone! this is my first posting so please be gentle. I have a Audi A6 1998 triptronic Auto with best descibed as a slipping gearbox. as i changes between gears it acts like i did a kick down! it revs high then drops when gear has changed... this is killing my MPG and god know whats its doing to the gear box. I would appreciate any personal or professional and friendly advice you can offer.
