In the last two days I had a problem in that it will not go into reverse. I think it is a linkage problem. Any ideas and or fixes.

It is not the Audi tranny. It will be the first serious problem in 13 years I have owned it.

Thanks as always

Vince

Probably the bushings in the rear, though that usually causes issues with other gears and the shifter is noticeably sloppy when in a gear.

I'd it is just reverse, you may have a problem internal to the transaxle.

Have you ever replaced the plastic bushings in the shifter or the bushing at the tranny. Notorious for wearing out and causing problems not to mention synchro wear.
