there is less driveline vibration and I can hardly feel the car shift under 3k RPMS. If I had known that servicing the automatic tranny would do this, I would have done this a long time ago!

BTW, I have 61k miles on the odo. My mechanic recommends replacing the fluid every 60k miles even though Audi says the ATF is "lifetime" (haha).

Thank you Stefan at GMW of Waterford, Michigan!<ul><li><a href="http://www.pentosin.de/eng/products/gearoil/body_gearoil.html">http://www.pentosin.de/eng/products/gearoil/body_gearoil.html</a></li></ul>
