2000 VW Jetta Transmission

Hi,

Wife's 2000 Jetta VR6 does the "won't shift back into first when coming to a stop when cold" thing. If I move the shift lever into 1st it'll work but otherwise it stays in fourth when starting up again and then does the "clunk" into first.

From a quick google search it sounds like:

1. The 01M transmission is a total turd of a gearbox.
2. It might be fixable if it's the N92 solenoid that's causing the problem.
3. The gearbox is probably gonna be toast soon anyways.

Anyone have experience with this?

thanks,
