Computer NFS file handle

How can I kill mount connection(NFS , made by automount) if remote filesystem is down?
I tried:

fuser -ku /auto
/auto:

umount /auto
nfs umount: ERROR: /auto is busy

If I try cd /auto - I get - /auto: Stale remote file handle.

I know that reboot will help but I cannot reboot this system!
