Unable to get parts for faulty mse transmission currently in my 2011. Audi upgraded because of known problems to nsy model transmission and expects owner to pay expense. They did not and have not make the customer/consumer aware of this until you forced to take it in for service due to sensors and limited functionality in driving capabilities. Vehicle hesitates and drops gears while in motion. This occurred on a major highway creating a hazardous event, in addition they will also charge you for a diagnosis and bogus service while they are already aware that the parts are not available for that transmission. Upon research I have found this is not an isolated problem, or due to driving, mileage, wear and tear, previous owner, lack of warranty or whatever else they want to come up with.
