Transmission is bad. Hard shifts between 1st and 2nd gear. Also between 2nd and 3rd gear. Drives fine until the car warms up. After about 20 or 30 minutes it starts the hard shift and jerking. It has gotten stuck in 2nd gear and will not shift up or down, nothing, just stuck.
2007 Volkswagen Beetle transmission complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 12 of 12, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Car sporadically looses power while attempting to suddenly accelerate after momentarily lifting foot off gas peddle. Most instances occur while changing lanes on the highway or attempting to make a normal left hand turn. Example: going 60 MPH, lift foot off peddle to slow down due to car in front of me, see opening in the lane to my right, turn wheel slightly to change lanes, floor it only to find I have no power with other car barreling down on me. This has happened over a dozen times but I am unable to duplicate it at will.
