Engine Problems?

[williamssam81]

I have a 2000 Audi A6 2.7T and recently the engine is not working right. after coming to a stop I will step on the gas and the gears wont get caught to turn the wheels. Instead the engine revs and the car rolls until the the wheels work. I am thinking this can be a transmission problem but I really dont know. Could it also be the timing belt?? please let me know if any of you encountered a problem like this before and if you solved it.

get the transmission serviced. Might be costly.

manual ****** or auto? if its manual then the clutch is not engaging properly. if its auto then torque converter may be bad, clutches may be worn out, or you may have a fluid leak. first things first, check your ****** fluid and see if its at the proper level and also check the smell and color. clean, bright red = good, dirty, brown with a burnt smell = bad. how many miles do you have on it?

if you sit in the car look at the dash wen you start it up and if the problem continues then i would say the problem is between the steering wheel and the driver seat. if its not that then change the transmission filter and fluid this is usually the problem since most people dont change it when they do a tune up. it is def. not the serpintine belt. to change the ****** filter unbolt it from the ****** but go slow and have something to catch the fluid. wen it is completely off you should see a magnet on the inside of the pan check it for metal shavings. if there is metal shavings then the ****** may need repaired. if its clean then you should be able to get away with just a filter and fluid change. if its a manual then check the clutch or the throw out bearing. if you have any other questions pm me i will respond shortly.
