1998 2.8L 5 speed transmission problem
I have the slightest clue about transmissions let alone an Audi transmission lol so here's what is going on, the car starts and everything no problem, the transmission will shift into each individual gears (all 6) but it wont engage into any. meaning it wont move at all, no rpm lose. I can hear it trying to grab the gears but it wont, I don't know what to do guys! HELP! I don't know if I need to replace it, have it rebuilt, or even something dumb like just flushing the fluid but I do know it is suppose to be life time, well up to about 100k. help will be very appreciated!

When in gear and you release the clutch, do you feel, hear anything at all? Do you FEEL it going INTO gear? Any NOISE at all when you let off the clutch or push the clutch in?
If the center hub has broken out of the disc, it will act this way as well.
When it's in gear, clutch released and off, does it roll?
Have you checked the brake fluid container? Under it is the fluid for the clutch?
It could also be the center of the clutch plate has torn out (but you'd still FEEL or notice something), otherwise probably the transmission input shaft is broken...just my 2 cents...

Actually I just looked into it and when I put it into a gear and let off the clutch slowly the rpms dropped slightly, I can tell it try's to engage into gear, there's no movement at all when during this either, I was told the clutch was replaced along with the master slave cylinder, but he said they may not have been put in correctly, but I'll check the fluid also tomorrow, thanks guys! Anymore input is greatly appreciated!

Also I was told that the cylinder was bleed to make sure there was no air in the clutch and also when the car is started you can put it in the gears without the clutch being pushed down but still no movement and it's also very sloppy in gears
