Do not put synthetic trans fluid in vette 4L60E,only use a dex/mercon 3 non synthetic.most likely burnt your 3-4 clutches.how many miles on trans? Might have not read that.

Once I put the correct amount of fluid in it, it ran perfect.

I have my very first A6 in my '08 convertible. When in drive it acts like a drag convertor when you slow down to make a turn, like it's kicking out of gear momentarily. If it's in manual shift mode it does not do it, is this normal for these? Or should I be concerned?? I had it serviced and it was pristine, didn't change anything, it has 71K miles. Any advice?
