HOW TO RESET AUDI A5 A6 AUTOMATIC GEARBOX, SMOOTH GEAR CHANGE

[@louvierejacques]

Well I'll be damned, this actually works- thank you! I have a 2012 A7 that was acting all twitchy pulling away from a stop. I had it in for some unrelated service and the mechanic noticed it and he gave me the impression it might be a significant problem, but he said there were no codes so he recommended I should check with a dealer. The dealer quoted me $250 to reflash the TCU. Somewhere around that time, I read about this fix in a couple of the big Audi forums and both times saw comments saying it had been debunked, so I just forgot about it. Anyway, I just got a ross-tech vcds and I was going to reset the transmission with that, but with nothing to lose I thought "what the hell, let me try this first." And it worked immediately. I'm subscribing- looking forward to seeing what other gems of knowledge you're sharing EDIT: 2012 Audi A7 C7, US-spec, 3.0, 8-speed auto

Nice to hear that 👍

[@mete5532]

one question, don't you had to wait couple of minutes after this proccedure, or start immidiatly after.

[@stivenhenao6857]

Just did it on my 2015 Audi a5. Absolutely worked. Car would react immediately to stepping on the accelerator or would shift irregularly. Did everything word for word on this video . Car drives/ shifts smoothly and immediately now . Thank you

Hi I would like to thank you very much. I also had problems with my gearbox and saw your video. I thought I could do no wrong and to my surprise my Audi drives very well now. Thank you again.

[@tristancooper4071]

This works, used to be slow to pull away with lots of over revs, but now she's a joy to drive... Thanks

[@emuraanhendricks9028]

Blimey...it actually works. Thanks for post. The garages normally makes like its a major problem. Once again thank you✌

[@19cakal91]

this 100% worked, thank you so much. I reset mine today on an A7 2014 and it made such a difference especially in Sport. the changes from 3rd to 2nd were quite juddery but are much smoother now. In Dynamic it barely feels like it is changing gear now!

[@sharmamanav786]

I have applied the same thing and it works bro , rest I will try it in the mrng also

[@SadaraxTutorials]

Do you have to push it all the way down where it pushes the kickdown buttton?

[@iliahvan4437]

can it be done on a cold ? or engine and gearbox need to be warm? thanks

[@Cef3axon1]

Accelerator pedal depressed max (with kick down) or no?

[@rigjockey67]

yes

[@DanielYTCH]

Thank you! It us to be bumpy getting of the line, now it’s way smoother

[@principmonster2484]

Doest it will work on q5 2009??

[@mikixP]

Thanks I’ll try this on my 2014 Audi A4 cvt

[@buttdreads]

What is your transmission doing? Jerking, laggy?

[@jadnas2096]

Did that work?

[@gent9896]

I got a question about this solution. I have an issue with a high oil pressure thingy, basically with the 3rd valve, and while driving i got the message “gearbox malfunction bla bla” After trying your method, the warning was gone, so is this solution somehow related with oil pressure also?

[@luciengranger2762]

Did you issue disappear completely? Mine just started throwing up the Gearbox Malfunction nonsense... will try this and see.

[@gent9896]

@@luciengranger2762 well apparently it does not show it anymore, however if I diagnose my car via any software it still shows that i have a gearbox issue. My mechanic told me to replace the electronic module of the gearbox or some shi*, otherwise drive normally and you won’t have any issues.

[@luciengranger2762]

@gent9896 Thanks for the reply... So your car just fixed itself in a way? That's very interesting... I do drive normally most of the time, I changed the clutches in October last year, but that's the perks of buying a second hand with lowish mileage. We tend to get the maintenance dilemma. I'll try resetting, and I'll see what it does... I am praying it's not the mechatronics unit... that's a pretty penny. My Mechanic has already booked me in for Monday, so I should know by the end of the week where my pocket will point me 😅😅

[@gent9896]

@@luciengranger2762 my mech asked 1000€ for replacing the electronic module and clutchesh incl transmission oil, so idk what’s the price range there but still expensive for standards in Albania

[@glaszlo9694]

Hi does it work on Audi A6 4F?

[@liamr974]

Does this only work if you have 25 miles in the tank

[@mrcarmaxharrow8331]

Sorry not clear your question. Tank level is not affecting this reset procedure

[@sharmamanav786]

If I found it again

[@rival3825]

How about you let us know what year this works for smh

[@LynxEng]

2009 onwards with S Tronic box

[@ikramulhaq660]

Sir, very good method. Sir, can you give me your number.

[@philipwhiteside166]

If your gear changes are jerky or your experiencing transmission problems try servicing your transmission your car maybe low on transmission fluid. Worked for me.

[@wholenewstrain]

H seeeit this worked on my old Audi A6 C5 .... burning asphalt again

[@sikanderhussain308]

Does it work on dsg 7 speed

[@Turchinsky86]

i did it on my a5 sportback 2014 tiptronic, is the changes will be feeled straight ? i can not saay i see difference

[@5Gamingx]

Thank you for the information. I plan to test it in my 2008/2009 Audi A4 B8. It seems there might be an issue with the gears or shifting in my Automatic S tronic. While driving, it appears the gears aren't changing automatically in the D drive mode, seemingly stuck in the first gear I guess because I didn't hear any switch gear little noise. Only on Sport mode and manual mode, I notice shifts based on speed that are switching automatically and it looks good. I experienced a noise when starting my audi in P position today, giving gas for 15-30 seconds. Could this have caused the gear switch problem? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

[@mohammadfarizfaudzli5260]

2009 can.

[@sharmamanav786]

It works

[@y19mke8]

Does anyone know if this will affect a remap that’s on my car? It’s only an engine one but don’t want it to mess it up

[@aobadie5103]

It won't I've tried it

Is working in a6 c6 2010?

[@almedinhabibovic5855]

If there any quick Update for audi q3

[@陈墨-q9e]

My Audi A6 2014/5 is showing gearbox malfunction,you can continue driving (limited functionality)….. the problem can be solved by this way ?

[@rollinafatonedoobie9317]

Mine too , did you find out what the cause is ?

[@Dainek0]

no

[@RS-cl1et]

Take it to the service bro, seems like clutch plates are gone, could also mean mechatronics unit as well. Had the same message on mine and just put new plates, ring sealers, filters and oil and the message is gone, luckily the mechatronics wasn’t damaged.
