I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM MY 45K MILE SERVICE(THE LAST ONE BEFORE IT GOES OUT OF WARRANTY). I WAS DOING ABOUT 45-50 MPH GOING THROUGH THE SUNPASS EXPRESS LANE. I LIFTED OFF OF THE THROTTLE FOR A SECOND AND THEN, WHEN I WENT BACK TO THE GAS, NO DRIVE, NO GEARS. THE RPMS SHOT UP TO AROUND 7500 RPM'S AND THE GEAR INDICATOR SCREEN LIGHTS (P,R,N,D,S) WERE FLASHING AND I HAD TO PULL OFF OF TO THE SHOULDER. AND TRYING TO PULL OVER WITH NO DRIVE ON THE PALMETTO EXPRESSWAY IN MIAMI ALMOST GOT ME INTO 2 DIFFERENT ACCIDENTS. I TRIED TO SELECT REVERSE THEN DRIVE AND SPORT MODE ON THE SHIFTER, NOTHING, SCREEN STILL FLASHING AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. I CALLED MY DEALER AND HE TOLD ME TO CALL AUDI ROAD SERVICE AND HAVE IT FLAT BEDDED BACK TO THEM. ABOUT 15 MINUTES AFTER THE OCCURRENCE, I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND IT NOW WAS ABLE TO SELECT A GEAR AND THE FLASHING STOPPED. I DROVE IT VERY DELICATELY BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS AWAITING A DIAGNOSIS. THEY SAID THEY ARE REPLACING THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION CONTROL/MECHATRONICS UNIT. THIS HAPPENED ON 7/24 AND I AM STILL WAITING ON THE NEW PART TO COME IN. I WANT TO REPORT THIS BECAUSE, IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON TO EXPERIENCE THIS FAILURE ON AN AUDI OR VOLKSWAGEN CAR USING THE DSG OR S-TRONIC GEARBOX.I WANT THIS TO BE DOCUMENTED IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS. I'M ALSO WORRIED THAT MY CAR IS JUST ABOUT TO COME OUT OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD AND, IF I HAVE THIS FAILURE AGAIN, IT COULD COST ME THOUSANDS OF MY OWN DOLLARS TO HAVE IT FIXED. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2006","productMake":"AUDI","productModel":"A3","manufacturer":"Volkswagen Group of America, Inc."}]}]}
