Is my transmission running ok??

Asked by leiza Oct 17, 2011 at 02:22 PM about the 2008 Volkswagen Golf GTI 2.0T 2-Door FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

First time owner of a GTI and I am not sure my transmission is running properly. When I get on it and its shifting from 3rd to 4th, it feels like the transmission slips. Its not all the time, just on occasion. Dealership claims its ok but I am worried its not. Any thoughts or comments?!
