And also the age of the transmission oil and filter? Here's a little history of similar events on mine. First. Very old fluid was making the box rather clunky. At the time, I didn't have access to a filter, so I only drained the box, and refilled with new fluid. It made a world of difference. Overheating cooling system. When I had an issue with overheating, a side effect was that the transmission would frequently lock in one gear, and stay there, until the ignition was turned off. Initially, it didn't appear that I was having a cooling problem.it became gradually worse. My supposition was that gearbox cooling circuit was suffering simply because the engine cooling was not normal. This also manifested mostly in stop start/ slow speed traffic. My cooling problem was actually a failed viscous coupling for the fan. Worth checking. Have a look at one of my threads. 85 WR quattro 90 V8 Silver, 91 V8 Black, 93 V8 Lago 93 100e quattro V6.
