Hi all,
I just finished importing my S3 from Germany (built 09/2013, formerly owned by Audi employee, 23.000km) and on the second day of driving it here in The Netherlands I had a problem and got stranded.
I had pressed the clutch-pedal, was about to go from 2 to 3 when the knob just got stuck in neutral. Couldn't do anything else than roll the car onto the side of the road. I was told by the AA-group / ADAC / ANWB technician who arrived on the scene that the problem was with one of the cylinders that contains oil which control the gearbox. It suffered from pressure loss, probably because one of the rubber o-rings is broken. That's why the clutch-pedal stayed depressed.
Has anyone else experienced this kind of problem? How did things turn out?
Luckily I have Audi-warranty that I can use at any Audi dealer. My car is scheduled to be taken there on monday. I hope it's a quick fix without any nasty surprises.
