Heres the story so far....
Audi quoted 3 k to do the work, I said no and took it to a gearbox place, they have told me today after removing the box that the linkage fork is gone, and also 1st gear has exploded and some casing is cracked.
For some reason I dont belive them but there is nothing I can do, how can a gear explode when your stopped in traffic, there was no noise, 2nd gear selects fine, and the car drives perfect apart from not being able to selct the desired gears, I also am having the clutch replaced, he said it was half worn but if I want to replace it I could, so the overall cost is £1000 does this seem expensive to you?
