1996 Audi A6 shifting

Hi I have a 1996 Audi A6 that I had jut bought and I observed that the transmission fluid (Hydrolic fluid) in the resivore tank is sitting just below the low mark on the tank. As soon as I take off even after letting it warm up for about 10 minutes it still shifts out of first gear in the high RPMS. But then after about driving a block or so it shifts normal. Is there anyone that has the same problem or has any insight on the problem? Thanks Joe

I'm confused. Is this a manual or automatic transmission you are describing here?

If the fluid level is low, you might experience slippage.

I have a couple of other questions if you dont mind. I guess I did not recieve a manual with the car when I purchased it. I cant figure out how to set the analog clock on the dash board. And also I cant figure out how to make the yellow circle indicator on the cnter of the guage console turn off. The guy told me that he replaced the brake pads but it still remains on. Also every time I Push the brake pad down I here a noise by the automatic shifter stick, it sounds like something is hitting in there. And finally Every time I start the car there are uumbers that blink and say in ..2 miles right below where it says the total miles on the car it blinks a couple of times and then when I push the break it turns off. Is there a way to clear some of these things up

Also do you think it might be possible that maybe the trans fluid and the filter need to be changed I dont when the last time it was changed. Is there a way of testing the fluid or a certain color that it should be. All that I know is that the Hydrolic fluid for these cars is $25 each quart SHIT.

Yeah you need an owner's manual all right. It might take weeks to google this kind of thing, but only one click to buy a manual!
did your (ahem) mechanic replace the brake pad wear sensors? If not, he owes you.
You might try: www.helminc.com
or
eBay

To adjust your clock there should be a knob on the left side of the dash (just like the one to reset the trip odo. but on the left) Push in and twist clockwise the clock should start to adjust. As for the brake pad warning light, I believe you need to buy pads that are compatible with the sensor. Google brake pad warning light and you should be able to find a way to reset this light. I think you again use the two knobs on the dash. Good luck.
