Hi i have a 2002 allroad 2.5 auto, tiptronic.

You have a wiring problem. .it's creating a draw on the battery. .you pull each fuse till draw goes away and your short is in that circuit. .

Take it to a transmissision shop to be check out, Before it gets worse, Unless you got money to burn,

Bring it back to whomever replaced turbo's on your 2.7. They screwed up a connection somewhwere.

Correct. He can't scan for codes if motor does not run

Lots of possibilities from a bad solenoid pack to a broken gear or blown internal seal. No way you're gonna DIY your way out of this. Get it to a shop.

Start by having the code pulled for the check engine light and go from there.

Hi there, I own a 2000 4 motion v6 passat tiptronic. last year october as i pulled away the car did the same thing showing negative on the dash and left me next to the road. through endless troubles i finally got it to a person who can "fix it". 6 months later after guarantee it left me next to the road. The first "fix cost me $1500.00. I love this car but I was **********. 3 weeks ago the car went in and I got the quotation of another $ 1850.00. the previous guy messed up. there is a pressure bowl that shifts to and fro. this gets worn out and burns the clutches wich puts it into a freeze mode so no further damage could be done. What I'm saying, get a good gearbox tech that gives at least a year guarantee. well that's all i've learned through this mess. good luck.

Have you had the vehicle put on a diagnostic machine, does the car feel slugish, any lack of power, we have seen a lot of these vehicles with air mass sensor faults. When they fail they do not show a code but with the right scanner they can be seen not working. This affects the gearchange because the ecu does not have the correct data to shift. Of course it could also be the transmission is in need of overhaul. but i would take it to a good diagnostic garage first. It is not uncommon for the air mass sensor to fail after it has been disturbed or knocked in the workshop. we have never found out why.

I seem to be having the same issue on my 2001 allroad. I read the post before and just tried some WD-40. I will let you know how it works.

glue guy the starter is probably bad..id replace it

michael buck what year and engine do you have
