RE: TIPTRONIC PROBLEM
The part or the instrument cluster where it displays p,r,n,d should change to numbers for the gear you are in. Check to see if the tip even works. You wont hurt anything. My guess would be that is wont work in which case you probably have a bad switch unit under the shifter. Usually there is a fault in the trans control module if there is a problem with the tiptronic.

It really depends. Sometimes there is a magent that falls out of the tiptronic switch in which case you must just put the magnet back in place. Worst case scenerio is that the swihtch was damage by eithr something spilled on it or some other electrical failure. In that case you would need a new switch assembly under the shifter. Not to much labor but the part will probablly run at least a couple hundrend bucks.
