Gearbox malfunction no reverse gear
2 hours into a 4 hour drive I pull off the highway to for a station. As the car gears down I get the message... Says I can continue driving lol I can't doesn't go into gear (even manually) and no reverse. Had to push it the rest of the way to the gas station. Ran the codes as I'm waiting on the wrecker. How eff'ed am I?

usually clutch won�t just go out like that. It will slip a little. You may have entered limo mode. If you reset the codes will it allow it to move?Sent from my iPhone using Audizine

Unfortunately it is. My S6 is on its way to a new clutch. I thought it was the mech unit. Do you have. Rough accel into first gear from a stop? Was it rough going into reverse? Based on your faults. Displaying friction material, & no reverse gear. That�s a clutch pack fault. These are manual transmissions that shift automatically. In which certain gears are shifted thru the 2 different clutches that combine in the pack. So if you�ve got a friction material fault and no reverse gear. You�d possibly have damage in one of the clutches. Believe it or not. The dual clutch isn�t stout that�s why Audi is going to ZF8�s in the whole Audi line up. The only DSG cars are the 2 liters.

Hmmm... well my buddy has a stage 2 RS7 and doing donuts last winter require him to get a new torque converter due to similar faults and issue you have... but his was purely the drifting and sliding non stop in MN snow that caused the tranny to take a poop. He has a ZF8 in the RS7

I thought DCT was overall a pretty solid transmission for an "automatic", especially the PDK version in Porsche. I thought the main reason manufacturers haven't gone entirely to DCT is that torque converter transmissions have improved and are less expensive. Is this essentially correct? Oh, how I miss a clutch pedal!

Yep you got it.
There is some truth in how much torque certain DCT's can handle, but as you pointed out Porsche has PDK's that can handle the 600+lb-ft in the Panamera Turbo S.2015 S6 Quartz Gray

IIRC, North American C7 A6/7s got the ZF8 because of a market preference for the smoothness of the torque converter and virtually no one caring about the fuel efficiency benefits of the DCT, preferences that are opposite most other places. The C8 A6/7 now have the DCT's to accommodate Quattro with Ultra�. I understand the C7 S6/7 getting the DCT for performance reasons, but the C8 getting the ZF8 is a bit of mystery, maybe just parts commonality and using what was already on the shelf from the RS4/5?
