Title: MK 5 GT TDI DSG GEARBOX FAULT
Post by: holdk2 on 11 November 2020, 19:56

Hi guys, can i ask a question my 2008 mk 5 gt tdi dsg box is faulty if i set off in D it will go through the gears fine until it gets into 3 then it will rev to about 4500/5000rpm then change and sometimes not change at all,
I can sometimes be traveling at 60/70 and it will change down into 5th, when I'm slowing down to come to a junction/roundabout it will judder as if it's changing down the gears  "feeling like I'm tapping the brake", however it works fine when i pop it manual it go's through the gears fine, I'm puzzled as there is a engine management light on tho.
I had fresh oil & filter in the gearbox about 4 months ago.
Any ideas pls.

Checking the fault codes is probably a good start.
