Transmission problem Audi 90 CS
I have a Audi 90 CS (93 Year)automatic transmission.
I am encountering problems when car shifts from second 2nd to 3rd gear. i.e only the gear shift hapens only if i take my leg off accelerator.
I did the transmission service yesterday due to the same problem. I had my ATF refilled yesterday.Do i have to wait for while or is it a bigger problem.
Also the RPM drops suddenly when i apply brakes during driving. But it comes back to normal once i start giving the acceleration.
Would appreiate if you could tell me as what could be the problem and what needs to be done

those are symptoms of your Auto-box dying. Take the high road and simply replace the whole tranny
you will spend a lot more money trying to "fix" your existing automatic. Save yourself a lot of stress & money by looking for a low-mileage replacement.

Did you use normal "red" ATF fluid?
Or did you get the expensive "Audi" ATF fluid? Next, try to scan the Transmission control module, if you pull a code it will help to determine what's wrong.
Has your transmission been serviced frequently?
Next you can always try a bottle of Lucas Transmission additive, I've used it with success.
I once had an automatic transmission in my car. It gave me nothing but headaches, then I swapped a manual into my car and haven't had a problem yet.
On a side note for all you old timers here on AW, I couldn't remember what it was like driving my Cab with an Auto slush box till I got into my newly acquired 90S, now I remember
Its been that long.
