Accurate diagnosis of any automatic transmission faults requires special equipment and experience, so it is recommended to contact a specialist in case of transmission faults. This chapter includes descriptions of some simple automatic transmission adjustments.
One of the most common causes of abnormal operation of an automatic transmission is low oil level. Check the oil level if any deviations in the operation of the transmission occur (see chapter "Car maintenance work"). A large loss of oil can lead to complete failure of the transmission. Do not remove or disassemble the automatic transmission - defects in the automatic transmission are usually impossible to detect visually, and diagnostics are carried out directly on the car.
If the automatic transmission is determined to be faulty, have it repaired by a VW dealer or exchange the unit for a factory remanufactured one.
CAUTION: The normal operation of the automatic transmission is highly dependent on the condition of the engine and its characteristics. Poor adjustment or general engine wear can appear as a transmission malfunction, so the first thing to check is the transmission fluid level and the engine condition.
