:evil: hi

I recently bought a fto and just my luck its a lemon. The transmition is doing somthing funky. I turned out of my driveway this morning and tryed to change gear (its a triptronic) and the revs hit the roof because my foot was on the acelerator so i took it off and it changes gear no clunkinking it just lags like two seconds and it happens in both auto and manul. It happens to all gears exept reverse i took it to the mechanics and they gave me these two error codes but they have no idea 12afs and 24da co connect please help :?: :?: :?:

Quite often lagging can be a result of the transmission oil. These boxes are very picky when it comes to oil. Put in the wrong type (or if its too old/burnt) and youll have issues. Im not saying this is definitely the issue because I dont know the transmission codes myself. As shadowarrior said, do a search for transmission codes and you might find something. Otherwise, im sure someone will jump on soon and shed more light.

[edit] Here are the codes:

The code 12 would be for Air Flow Sensor, not sure what 24 is for... vehicle speed sensor?
