Gearmaster no1: This came up on a scan: 17090 - transmission range sensor (F125): Implausible signal. 17118 P0734 Gear 4 - incorrect ratio 17119 P0735 Gear 5 - incorrect ratio 17114 P0730 Gear Ratio Control - incorrect ratio 17087 P0703 Torque converter/Brake Switch B Circuit - Malfunction What's the transmission range sensor, and where is it located, is it inside the transmission? Any ideas overall what's wrong? What does a service entail, if the transmission is healthy, as in what is replaced, and rough estimate of cost? |
| Re: Gear Box Problem by sultaan(m): 3:56pm On Nov 26, 2011 |
me me me can I have a go? The range that controls the transmission sensor is a sensor(nigerian version) In 5 minutes I looked online figured where its located , what it looks like and possibly how it works(based on its location on trans cable) Probably tells the ECU what gear you're on to match with engine speed(?) Replacement looks very easy, read the 2 threads http://www.audiforums.com/forum/diy-do-yourself-55/how-replace-audi-a6-transmission-range-sensor-switch-138769/ http://forums.audiworld.com/showthread.php?t=333745 may be wrong but this gives an idea of where to start. Always start with the first code on DTCs Gearmaster no1 is probably trying to start an online biz, has not really show any experience from all his response so far in my opinion. No offence intended, If I have really worked on transmissions and someone says trans jerks and ideals before changing, my response won't be "don't wait for gearbox to go dead" should at least pull a reasonable response out of your bag of experience. "Oga your transmission seems to be slipping, check the color of the fluid(although its not a true indicator) you may probably have a check engine light on, I'll advice you to bring it into our shop for a closer look the more you wait the more expensive it will get to fix" 2 Likes |

^^^ Lol, Sultaan. I knew all the answers to all I was requesting, the range sensor is the "F" switch. I've replaced several, it's on the left of the transmission, and requires the catalysts and tranny mount on that side to access. A bear of a job. On the RS6, there's more room to work, even with the catalyst in place. I just want to know how good Gearmaster is, and if he could give the correct answers. I'd still like to get his views on things, it's been a while since I posted my query. |

| - I laff in Audi language!! When I saw ur question Sienna I knew I should monitor the response of gear master closely. When I saw his response after a whole lot while I said to myself : that's a NO NO answer to a grandmaster guru in all things audi!!! For me I feel if he knew his onions well his response should have been better!! |
| Re: Gear Box Problem by sultaan(m): 4:11pm On Nov 27, 2011 |
I knew you were digging a big hole. The man has never given a direct response to any inquiry. He will come back an apologize for not responding sooner, I just wish he could be of real help to all these users wasting money on minor service problems. The man want you to take your car for scanning if it has a problem but he will fix the gear box.Was he not suppose to scan before fixing? Its good to have people like Ikenna351 here, he understands troubleshooting and the Naija language. There are a few users who share knowledge not for financial gain hope Grandmaster01 will give out some tips to fellow users. Chukky86: Sensors don't get services, they get replaced if bad. Your mechanic might buy a Mercedes will you try to fix your Honda Basically he has done nothing sensible to fix it. |

No offence intended, but with 11 posts with none indication you are familiar with any part of a transmission. We all should be part of the solution instead of being part of the problem. I take things the way I see it.If am wrong I do apologize. |

Gearmaster no1: Gearmaster, before I decide to drive 7,500-odd miles with a dodgey ZF tranny, I'd be looking for a lot more reassurance you know one end of a tranny from the other, than you've displayed so far. I'm not looking for a 100% remote diagnosis, but some idea what could be wrong. After all, the issues I've described are by no means unique. I even assisted you by pulling fault codes, as per your request. So, what's the likely case scenario, and assuming a full refurb, what sort of cost am I looking at? During a routine service of a healthy ZF5HP24A, what exactly do you replace, as preventive measures to outright failure? |
| Re: Gear Box Problem by Nobody: 4:52pm On Nov 29, 2011 |
Gearmaster, I'm still waiting for an answer[i].[/i].. |

Siena:pls siena allow gearmaster to rest, as it Ȋ̝̊̅§ crystal clear Ūя̲̅ questions are alliens in his dictionary of comprehension.Nigerian mechanics are killing us day in day out. I got my new 2002 mazda 626 burned to aches last week, my simple offence was that I took †ђξ car for servicing. |

Bobbyendy: Bro, I'm sorry to hear about your loss. What exactly happened?  |
| Re: Gear Box Problem by nagoya2(m): 1:51pm On Nov 30, 2011 |
@Siena: My 1996 Hona Accord kinda kicks/jerks when changing gears. When it does this, there's an abrupt rise & drop in the rpm. Also, the 'D' light doesn't come on when the gear is selected. I've had the gear oil changed but it's the same story. Please what could be responsible for this? Thank you. |
| Re: Gear Box Problem by Epzilon: 2:44pm On Nov 30, 2011 |
WOW! i thought i knew a lot about cars, until i visited this forum,    hello Siena, i recently stated experiencing harsh engagement form Park to reverse(P-R) on my 2000 Toyota Camry. this started when the rear engine mount(the one close to the firewall) was replaced(which was bad obviously) .But prior to the replacement the transmission shifted as smooth as silk, i also noticed a burning smell while driving the car after the mount replacement and the upshifts and downshifts are much more noticable than before, please what must have gone wrong?   |
| Re: Gear Box Problem by Epzilon: 2:50pm On Nov 30, 2011 |
and i forgot to add: it is a V6 (1MZ-FE) With the A541 Transmission No codes were thrown when the power-train was scanned  |

Chukky86: I had the same issue with my 1998 model baby boy while in Nigeria.It's jerks when changing gear.It's just a matter of time it will stop selecting gear,so i will advice you get a new gear box once and for all to save you stress.I am sure this happened as a result of leakage somewhere around the gearbox that you didn't noticed on time until the oil got dried.That was how mind developed ,was traveling with it from Lagos to the east and i didn't notice the leakage.Well i spent close to 100k to get it fixed but i am sure it will be cheaper if fixed in Lagos.I will always discourage any friend of mine from buying a baby boy due to gear box issues and hoping my new FX45 will save me the stress of gear box issues.This is the best advice from experience.Cheers |
