Usually, the only thing that breaks is the Parking Pawl. Unless the case is cracked, it can be repaired while the trans is still in the car. A competent trans mission gut will know what to check before dropping the transmission. Just remove the pan and the valve body. The broken pieces will be evident.

..... oops, 40, and she wondered why there was so much white smoke!!!

Yep, sitting in the middle of Fellowship Road with 50 mph traffic wizzing by. The guy who stopped to let her use a cell and call em, got his car side swiped for his efforts, and the swipper kept on going.

Want to know what happens to a FWD Scirocco auto when it hammers PARK at 40 mph? From the sound of it, it chiopped at least one tooth on the differential if not more. Terminal, I'm afraid.

Bummer, need a new aauto something VW/Audi/Porsche close to NJ.

Any one got something for sale??
