audi cvt transmission

The transmission industry is on its deathbed. They are moving toward a day where if your trans goes you throw the car away.People with older classic cars in the the near future will have to pay outrageous prices for trans repairs. The same way rebuilt carburators went after electronic fuel injection.And wait till Chrysler starts using the Fiat dual clutch trans.Start shorting the stock of extended warranty companies now. In the mid 70's...

440 is pretty right...  99% of the time if the front seal is leaking the bushing is bad.  may not look it,  but it will be lose and walking out and closeing off the drainback hole.   or so worn the drainback hole can't do its job.   repeated bushing failure is usualy a bad converter (hubs not true)  or a damaged flexplate/crank pilot.

First of all, thanks a lot, I've been having this problem for a while now. The motor is in a 2000 expedition I've tried everything but the fuel pressure test. Once again thank you! That will definitely be my next step!

If that is the case then why do I get code 0750 solenoid A. I can turn the ignition on without starting the car and erase all codes codes. Then start the car. Code 0750 will appear in about 20 seconds. The car was never shifted out of park. Solenoid A is suppose to be on in Park, Nutral, When manually shifted to first, and, fourth.

I hope this is the right forum.  Let me know if I should post these questions elsewhere. I am selling my car privately.  I have a couple of questions I can't seem to find answers for using google search for "tips on selling cars." When should I allow someone to test drive my car?

If the low/reverse sprag was not holding the vehicle wouldnt move in D1{in manual low the band would hold the low/reverse drum} If the sprag was jammed and wouldnt freewheel the trans would bind up as soon as it shifted into 2nd.
