At 210,000Km/131,000 miles I've got an AT that performs as if it was low on atf! Problem is: just had the AT service done by a known good independent VW shop. Shifts are rough, sometimes misses. Highway driving is OK except for 6% grade going uphill it's tendency is to downshift and misses (disengages) if I take my foot off the accelerator it catches.
Any ideas??? VW quoted me $4,000 to $7,000 to repair/replace depending on what they find. I find this pricing exhorbitant. How can an auto-transmission be this expensive?
Thanks in advance...
Maybe these trannies are only good for 120K miles - that's what a local (good) dealer told me today.
