Automatic Transmission Repair

German Car Depot also specializes in the service and repair of Volkswagen® & Audi® automatic transmissions.

The automatic transmissions available on VW and Audi vehicles are some of the most innovative and well engineered transmissions ever offered by an automobile manufacture.

Multitronic
CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission)
DSG (Direct Shift Gearbox)
S-Tronic

When properly maintained the automatic transmissions in Volkswagen and Audi vehicles will give exceptional performance and can last a remarkably long time. When things do go wrong, the problems may not always require an complete rebuild.

Transmissions from Volkswagen and Audi vehicles are the only automatics we service.
By specializing in these unique transmissions, it is rare when we see a problem we have not seen before.

Transmission repair shops who don’t have our expertise, can only offer to install a very expensive rebuilt transmission. The technicians at German Car Depot are able to diagnosis and repair many common transmissions problems, without having to perform a complete rebuild. This can save a customer thousands of dollars.

When the transmission in your VW or Audi vehicle is beyond repair and a complete rebuild is necessary, German Car Depot's prices, expertise and warranty are the best in South Florida.

German Car Depot accepts most extended warranties and service contacts.

VW and Audi Tiptronic transmissions are sealed at the factory with so-called “lifetime filling” automatic transmission fluid. In reality, most VW and Audi experts would agree these transmissions should have their fluid and filters replaced every 40,000 to 50,000 miles.

Changing the fluid in your VW or Audi automatic transmission is the single most important preventive maintenance procedure to ensure maximum performance and longevity.

A common problem we see is when a simple battery change is made without reprogramming the transmission computer. This can cause erratic shifting or a limp home mode to occur.
