A6 A8 4.2 V8 2000 - 2002 (A)

Tovesageneral Motors lists this A6 A8 4.2 V8 2000 - 2002 (A) as a used, inspected automatic transmission. It comes out of a working vehicle rather than a parts-bin unknown: we drain and check the fluid, inspect the case and gear train for visible wear, and test shift engagement where the unit's condition allows before it ever reaches the shelf.

Key Specifications: Housing material and internal gear ratios follow the original factory specification for this application, not an aftermarket reproduction. Transmission type: Automatic (torque converter). We list the gear count as application-dependent for the A6 A8 4.2 V8 2000 - 2002 (A): several ratio sets were fitted across different markets and trim levels, so confirm against your old unit or VIN before ordering. Compatible engine(s): A6 A8 4.2 V8 2000 - 2002 (A) engine variants. Since the A6 A8 4.2 V8 2000 - 2002 (A) platform spans multiple drivetrain configurations, confirm your chassis's drive layout against the listing before ordering to be certain of fitment.

Performance Characteristics: Like any torque-converter automatic, this unit is more fluid-sensitive than a manual gearbox, both shift feel and internal cooling depend on using the right fluid type and level, so confirm the factory spec before any post-installation top-up.

Common Applications: Fitment centers on Audi models built with the A6 A8 4.2 V8 2000 - 2002 (A) driveline referenced above. Since this casting can carry more than one control or spline revision across a production run, the safest path is to confirm against your existing unit or send your VIN so we can verify compatibility before the order ships.
