hi guys so i bought a 2000 mk4 golf , was in a crappy situation , fixed the car up and its running good now except
01M automatic tranny acts up when hot ? 2e goes in N then back in 2e for no reason ( loosing pressure at +- 40km/h & overdrive slipping like a preaaaaty bad burned manual clutch ... ????
when cold everything is ok ... just takes 2-3 second to engage in D or R .... but i figured its normal ?
tranny rebuilt at 222,000km cost 2,254$ (i have the bill in hand from previous owner )
car now has 227,000km
if you would pay 2,254$ for a rebuild ... would you expect this kinda bull shit ??
let me know you're 2 cents and what i should do about this ?
EDIT: i bought this car with the drivers side motor mount let go ... the tranny shop fucked the 2 bolts that goes in the aluminium housing and was all stripped so the previous owner got into a pothole and the engine fail down on one side , axle knocking on the frame all tranny plugs pulled ect big mess but fixed it i 1 hour like it should of , left the axle there ... ripped but ok for the time being, the solenoid plug unpluged and all the codes came on , stuck in limp mode, cleared that with vag com and it runs like on all 4 speeds , all this because the idiot torqued the 2 main bolts that bolt up in aluminium with most probably his impact gun to save 2 min of his life but almost make the client crash with his 2 kids in the back ...
wondering if the guy did a crappy job on the rebuilt ....
fixed the car and never went to the rebuilt shop ... i told my self to fix it and shut up .... but now the tranny is acting up ... i dont know what i should do ...
any info would be appriciated thanks !
