My much loved DSG box appears to be playing up today. The car has less than 6.000km on the clock. I do admit I tend to drive the car quite hard and spend most of the time in Sport mode. Worth mentioning also, I did a Revo Stage 1 upgrade not too long ago.
No gearbox issues up until today. The car is now missing gears and can shake when pushed hard.
I will take the car to VW tomorrow. Probably best to flash the car back to normal to avoid any warranty issues?
Pain in the a*se.
Anyone else had similar problems?
Thanks

Whats it like in D mode ? It could be a mecatronic unit overheating ? But it sounds like you thrashed the arse out it :grin:

Playing up in both D and S mode

I did.. but no dsg for me. I know some remap providers will change the dsg map for you also. Hurdy was running silly bhp through his dsg box and it handled it very well with the new map. :nerd:

My DSG box has 135k on it and i have no history from Audi of it ever being changed ( i got a sheet printed off of history they done when i bought the car) and mine runs fine touch wood

Car is under warranty - so in the event it is serious it will be covered.
Taking her to the tuners tomorrow. Will keep you posted.
Thanks for the replies.

A good remap sould sort that out :lipsrsealed:

Sounds like another DSG mecatronics unit issue to me.

When you say the newer DSG's, is the 6 speed DSG in the GTI not the same as in the Mk5? I thought it was only the 7 speed DSG boxes that weren't getting touched.

Well it wasn't a DSG fault after all - thankfully. Fuel pump issue - AGAIN. This is the second time.
Car is back and running as normal.
Thanks for the comments.

I don't understand how it can miss gears if its a fuel pump issue :undecided: I will just put it down to electronics/programming doing odd things because of the fuel pump issue. :undecided:

Yep very strange that never heard of that before ??? Hope its sorted it out :wink:
-
All fine now chaps and hopefully that's the end of it.
Back to Revo over the weekend to remap her again. Feels rather slow after the stage 1 upgrade!
