Would a bad computer in a 2003 Audi A4 3.0 also cause hard manual shifting?

Asked by GRAvery Aug 27, 2015 at 10:10 AM about the 2003 Audi A4 3.0 quattro Sedan AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

After multiple episodes of rough engine operation attributed to failed ignition coils, repaired and yet continuing, repair guy pulled codes showing "multiple failures" that he attributed to a bad computer.  While saving up for this, the car now has a seeming clutch problem - hard to put into gear.  No slippage, but occasional clutch burning smell, as if no fluids.  Does the computer control the clutch operation?
