Too expensive and not worth doing.

[@bzhitnitsky]

@Kris Nicholson I don't think that's true. Once the hardware is installed and mechanically working, and you have the new trans wired correctly, the software side of things is fixable. I know for a fact that on the MQB platform, the ECUs have the same hardware and software part numbers, regardless of transmission. Swapping the trans is as simple as changing the correct bits in the ECU and other module's long coding, and removing that auto trans from the Gateway Installation List on the CAN gateway. This is an older car, so it may be different than the MQB platform, but I can't imagine requiring an ECU replacement for a transmission swap. Worst case, maybe flashing the ECU to a different software version with ODIS Engineering or something but again, not impossible or too costly. If it really needed a different ECU, it can still be swapped with a cheap used junkyard one and adapted with ODIS Service. DAP could do it if they wanted to...

I'd buy it. Used CVT is like $600-1500 for the part. So, in a $1500 car if I did it myself over a weekend, that's $3k. Still a bargain. Drive axles are like $100 each from Autozone, and easy to swap out. The Autozone ones are fine. I put a couple of them in my various Audi/VW cars over the years and never had an issue.

That's good to hear. On 112k miles and it concerns me. Mines a b8 so should be even more reliable as the earlier ones had the problems, according to my mechanic. Do you change the oil every 40k?

[@thegeekdreams]

I agree @ 15:41 where you say you’re “not super familiar with CVT transmissions..”. CVT = A continuously VARIABLE (not valueless) transmission! Your fault code P0706 is probably the transmission range sensor (aka neutral switch). I would use VCDS to test the module. Possible cause is corrosion either on connector or sensor by a leaking water vent pipe under passenger carpet. If the fluid change / adaptation doesn’t help, this is what you may want to look at.

The CVT is an amazing transmission. I have it in combination with the 3.0 V6. Up to 45 mph it revs at 1200rpm. At 75 mph it revs 2000 rpm. 0-60 in 6.5 sec. Average fuelconsumption is 1:15. Very smooth, very silent, brilliant. The CVT saves 25% fuel, so if it breaks down, no problem. I gladly have it repaired. It has been flushed at 30.000miles and will be flushed at 60.000 miles... just to make sure. No such thing as lifetime transmission fluid.

Dsg

[@arborharbor7408]

@@progmanmike Dsg is prolly more unreliable than cvt. And 195k miles is pretty good

[@progmanmike]

@Steven Strain It had some blowby which is normal, but then one day just suddenly it started draining coolant into the engine. The DSG just needed a clutch pack at around 120k ever since then the DSG had been problem free. I'm thinking in a year or so I'll have the disposable income to hit up integrated engineering for their built short block.

Head gasket failure. There are plenty of engines out there you can get for around $500-$1000. 2.0 FSI is a decent engine. Aside from couple weak points.

Thanks great information just let me know I can't afford an Audi.

Hi, I have an Audi 500 SEL V6 2.8L 94 MODEL. What kind of ODB can I use on my car

[@Pety91]

Do these 2.0 TFSI engines have any problem with the oil pump? (the oil pump balance shaft hex key is too weak) Or is it just the 2.0 diesel's weakpoint? I have a similar condition B7 2.0 TDI manual with 296.000 km (184k miles) and I have already had it repaired preemptivly. I want is to reach 500.000 km. :) BTW I'd love to see that manual conversion in a video.

Can you please do a video of the common coolant leak because i have that in my car ?

You really know your subject.🇨🇦👍👍👍

Love that shirt Canada 🇨🇦 represent🤘

[@LivingLife128]

if i had the tools and lift and inside like these guy i would have no issue buying a cheap car and fixing it. as long as you can do the work yourself most of these cars a not expensive to fix. it when one has to fix it outside in the rain and cold they get irritating

You probably already changed it but I saw your vvt solenoid n205 valve was leaking at the back of the head. It'll make the car do wacky idle stuff.

Sweet! Where can I get one? Includes free fault codes...

[@jimmymckenna9832]

I have this same exact car other then mine is white. I spun a bearing on the crank and it is pretty much done. I’m gonna replace the engine but now I’m wondering what it would take to do a manual swap. The bad part is my CVT transmission has no problems so far and the car has 136,000 miles on it

[@mmmadog]

My cvt in my prius is just fine at 226k. But I'm looking at a 2008 a4 Platinum for 4200.

[@80sGuy.]

That's because it's a light car.

[@BadMuflon]

If that box has 7 plate clutch pack then its way better then the 6 plate clutch. The biggest problems had diesel engines esspecially 2.5 tdi with CVTs since diesels will put more NM on the box. If its the 6 plate clutch then it should hold 300nm, if its a 7 plate thrn it should hold 400nm. Gasoline engines with 7 clutch pack are ok, there were failures on those versions aswell but not as much as diesel and 6 plate box versions. People often remap their gasoline cars and they make over 300nm and thats the limit of the box if u have 6 plate clutch. If u change oil in theese boxes regulary and u dont push them too much and dont remap it then its ok.

[@ristekostadinov2820]

At least Audi learned 10years ago that cvt is not the answer, many car companies are still using it. Proper CVT (not with simulated gears) is good for hybrid/pure electric, other than that is useless.

[@popcornlover948]

I like your honesty

[@chriskelvin248]

I'm not 100% sure, but I think that's my car. I say not sure because it's been sitting at my mechanic's shop for 14 months. I brought it in for its first inspection and change of the fluids...driveway queen.
