What are the common issues with the Audi A5 transmission?

I noticed some lag and rough shifting in my Audi A5's transmission. Are there any common issues that I should be aware of?

Hello Sophia, it is not uncommon for Audi A5 transmissions to experience rough shifting, especially in the early years of production. One common issue is a faulty mechatronic unit, which controls the transmission. It is important to have this checked and potentially replaced by a certified Audi mechanic.

Hi Sophia, another common issue with the Audi A5 transmission is a leak in the transmission fluid. Check the fluid levels and have any necessary repairs done as soon as possible, as low fluid levels can lead to further damage to the transmission.

Hi Sophia, in some cases, a software update may also be needed to address any shifting issues. Make sure to check with your local Audi dealership if there are any updates available for your specific model and year.
