96 VW Golf transmission problem?

Jan 11, 2004 1 Replies

I have a 96' VW Golf (GTI) with 4 speed automatic and 56,000 miles



Lately...when starting cold... I put gear into drive.. it'll move then disconnect...I had to lightly press the gas pedal before it re-enage the gear...happens for the first mile... afterwards it'll be ok...



What is it? need more transmission oil? if so where do I find tranmission dipstick?



Thanks! Tom (SLC, Utah)

All depends on *which* 4 speed auto trans you have. Some are not equipped with a dipstick since they are filled from underneath the vehicle.
