What Does Your Audi S6 Transmission Do?

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your S6’s performance. They're often easy to notice. Audi S6 transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. Let Audi S6 transmission problems linger and you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your S6 at all.

Questions About 2008 Audi S6’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Audi's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Audi? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your S6’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your S6 is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my S6 transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2008 S6’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Audi's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Audi S6? Yes. Audi S6 transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Who fixes Audi S6 transmission leaks? Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care can troubleshoot and repair S6 transmission systems. Book an appointment online today.
  • Should I avoid driving my Audi S6 if there is a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your S6 if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
