| Nov 14, 2017 at 13:40 | comment | added | motosubatsu | Irritatingly this model has no dipstick for checking transmission fluid level (thanks Audi!), I've only had the car <12 months and haven't done a fluid change in that time - if it was changed according to the schedule then it should have been done at 80k miles. It's on 151k now so it might be trying to tell me that it's coming due again? | |
| Nov 14, 2017 at 13:26 | comment | added | GdD | Have you checked the transmission fluid level according to your manual? How long has it been since the transmission has had a service? | |
