    Out of the blue my AWM auto wouldn't go into gear. You start it, shift into reverse, takes a second then clunks into reverse, put it in drive, then no gears at all. It just revvs like it's in neutral. The gear indicator on the infocenter has every gear selected (like a solid bar across the...

    I have a 2003 Passat Wagon AWM and when I turned it on today all the PRDN etc lit up on the dashboard. In other words it wasn't just P since it was in P. I was able to change gears (although there was lots of popping from/to reverse) and drive, and when I shut the car off and turned it back on...
