2 Transmission Not Engage problem of the 2004 Audi TT

Failure Date: 11/12/2010

2004 Audi Tt 3. 2 dsg transmission, 75823 miles. 2nd time that the transmission has disengaged from the engine in the pass several months. The both times that it has happened is when initially the car is first started up. I drive several feet, stop and then accelerate again and the car does not move. When accelerating by using the gas pedal, the engine revs to higher rpms but does not move or the transmission does not engage. I turn the ignition off and then restart the car again and car operates normally with no problems. No engine management light comes on to indicate a problem. I called the dealership the first time and it was indicated that the car software system will get a hiccup on occasion and this was normal. I have never experience this problem (or the occasional hiccup) since owning the car with 5,500 miles on the odometer until recently.

3 Transmission Not Engage problem of the 2004 Audi TT

Failure Date: 11/03/2010

Operating vehicle at normal surface street and highway conditions - dsg transmission disengages putting vehicle into neutral and eliminating all power train response. This failure has occurred twice within the first five days of operation - 1 @ surface coasting as approach to intersection - then accelerate - system initiated a auto shift sequence that resulted in neutral, and required system (ignition ) restart. 2@ freeway coasting as approaching slower vehicle - then accelerate - system initiated a auto shift sequence that resulted in neutral, and required system (ignition ) restart. No repair has been done to correct issue - still working with dealer.
