well i did a search like you said. it brought up things like hong kong forum and other stuff that had absolutely nothing to do with a tranny reset. somewhere in those threads someone posted the word reset or tranny and thats y they popped up. the search function sucks as far as im concerned. i like the VWvortex.com search function better. you know you could have just told me what it was with the same amount of words it took to tell me to search on that inferior search function. thanks for hold ing back the info buddy.
