I need help and advice from experience nairalander, my golf 3 automatic transmission car, stays in gear even when brake is applied. It keeps moving or trying to move unless you move to neutral. When I start it, the rpm goes so high as above 10, and later to 10, my mechanic has tried all he can from adjusting and readjusting the carburettor to changing temperature censor and all that. I was told to is the valve body, some said is an electricall fault. So recently I did a scan which read faulty ECU. And its said no communication between ecu and the transmission. Any idea is appreciated.

When in D, your car is always in gear; stationary or in motion.

What is your engine RPM at idle? I don't understand the '10' above.

Thanks Kashif, if am on motion and wanted to come to a halt, l have to put it on neutral to stop completely. Otherwise it vibates and still moves even though I trys to brake. The rpm is above 1, in golf3 tis from 0,10,20,30,etc
after driving for sometime it comes to 1.
it comes with an electric carburettor.

Please i am experiencing the same problem please can you tell me any solution or what u did to your car
