Asked by HarkinsJess Aug 16, 2015 at 07:00 PM about the 2002 Audi A8 L quattro AWD

I purchased the car with the engine locked up, I purchase the engine from a used parts person. My Son who is a mechanic changed the engines, but now when it is put into drive or reverse the car acts like it is still in neutral.
