Problems after dead battery. Help!!! (updated)
Here's the story, on a 98 auto NB.
My girlfriend forgot to turn off the head lights last night. This morning, the battery ran out. I tried to jump start the NB tonight and the NB did start. When my gf tried to drive it away, battery dead again. So jump start again, and let the engine idling for like 5 minutes. After that, she tried to drive it away, and it turned out that the NB can only run under low gear and rpm. When she press the gas pedal, the NB did accelerate till like 20mph and rpm close to 3000, then all of a sudden, the engine lost power. It seemed that the NB could never shift onto 2nd gear. What's going on?! It's the battery of the transmisson?
Sigh, since we bought this NB this April, we've kept getting into trouble. Brake sensor, door lock, error speedometer ... and then this. I have to say I'll avoid VW(or say VW from Mexico) in the future.
