It's the below mentioned A6 2.7t. I *believe* it has a hydraulic clutch, but
I don't have the relevant documentation in front of me.
How would a clutch failure cause the above symptoms? The primary symptom
is that the gear shifter can't move *into* position. The clutch seemed
to engage completely when I started the car with the shifter in
position.
Thanks!!!
