A4LD Trans Help

BigMikeOn33s · 12-30-2008, 06:47 PM

Hello just joined up here.
Anyhow my trans was acting up like it took 15 sec to shift into first.Then the RPMs would run really high and rev hard and then slam into gear.Well i thought i would change the filter and fluid and see if there was anything there in the pan that might be wrong too.
Well after dropping the pan i found the overdrive anchor pin in the pan.
Now i have to "manually" shift into first.
My question is does anyone know how this pin goes back in?
This has been about a month now and its driving me crazy the way i have to get into first.
Also are there any long term problems that might occur if this doesnt get fixed?

Thanks for any help.

Mike

I seen your question on MYMUDSPACE too. You have serious internal transmission problems, that pin shouldn't fall out. Take it to a transmission shop or pull it and then take it to one to have it rebuilt. An A4LD can be built to withstand 600-700 horse with the right internal components.

Try checking wreckers first, it's often cheaper than a rebuild. plus for like 100 bucks they will pull it.(way faster)
