Hello
My 2001 Audi A8 (D2) chassis with 4x4 FBB transmission currently has 157,000 miles and over the last 10,000 the transmission has slowly become noisier, still in daily use, no clunking just noisy and small leaks at rear and near side output shafts.

My VAG.COM software fault codes suggest the torque converter is faulty.

I’m investigating replacement/overhaul of the tanny and torque converter before it goes bang!

Can anyone recommend a specialist in the United Kingdom Southeast? Or had experience with any of these:

1/ Automatic & Manual (Chelmsford)
2/ Durston Motors (Sudbury)
3/ Suffolk Automatic Transmissions (Sudbury)
4/ Technical Automatic Services (Colchester)
5/ Stephan Engineering (Herts)

Many thanks.
