Hi, I will keep this brief I've got a a4 2004 avant 6 speed.its done 124k with s/h and is good generally. The problem is shifting 1st to 2nd and a bit into 3rd.its just a bit notchy when cold but seems normal When warm.ive heard that these 6 speed boxes are pretty much all like this(true or not)??? And that there's an oil upgrade to improve this anyone know what oil??? Thanks .
The common issue on these is 1st/2nd as the hub wears and damages the gear when the rings start to fail. The issue with 3rd may Be an issue coming out of 2nd if it's cheers up
