2007 Volkswagen Passat

TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SHIFT INTO GEARS SMOOTHLY OR SOMETIMES NOT AT ALL. CAR HAS TROUBLE SHIFTING INTO GEAR GOING INTO REVERSE, WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY GOING 40 MILES AN HOUR IN TRAFFIC, AFTER A STOP AT A STOP LIGHT OR AFTER PUTTING ON BREAKS TO SLOW DOWN BEHIND CAR THAT HAS PUT ON BREAKS. WHILE PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR NOTHING HAPPENS, CAR JUST REVS AS IF IT WAS IN NEUTRAL AND WILL NOT MOVE, THEN WILL FINALLY JERK/SHIFT USUALLY HARD INTO GEAR.
