I recently bought this beauty:

07 S-Line -extremely rare in South Africa in this spec.
2 tone leather
18" BBS from factory
S-Line sport suspension
Sunroof
SatNav with flip down screen and 2 x SD slots
Colour LCD on cluster with SatNav instructions appearing in color
( MANY of these may be standard for the US market so dont laugh



Dont like the woodgrain and will be sourcing an RS4 carbon interior


Now that I've introduced the car, down to the nitty gritty:
It has a slip between 1st and 2nd gearchanges under load.
When you come to a stop, just before the vehicle becomes stationary, it has a thunk from the drivetrain as though it's hit first gear violently.
I am in the process of buying a solenoid kit but thought I'd post here to get a collective set of opinions.
I dont believe a simple oil change will ever rectify this.
It would not be financially feasable to rebuild the box here, neither will I be able to source another box cheap.
Any input will be appreciated
