Notice to all Audi A8/S8 D2 owners: Petition to Audi of America to investigate the Transmission.....
If you have had the common transmission problems characterized as "hunting" or any other issue with the transmission, list your name, address, car year and model, description of problem, and incurred cost of fixing the problem. Once we have a finalized list, I'll send it to the A8 advocate team.

It's the valve body
Tozo has figured it out, it's worn parts inside it. I don't think you will get anything out of AoA on a 97-99 car, it's 2007.
