hi, i hope you can help me... driving to work and my gears started to shift erratically even when in tiptronic, eventually D4 light began to flash. car would stil drive but pulled over and turned car off for a bit. resumed driving and within a few hundred metres, same thing again. D4 light remains flashing when in park/reverse etc.

Hi elisha_m,

Check the transmission fluid level first.

Get a scan done frre at your local Autozone outlet and let me know the exact trouble code, if any. You need to retrieve the trouble code to understand what is happening.
