« Last post by P6GTD on 25 December 2025, 14:50 »Thanks for OPs measurements. I think it’s now accepted that the Queenstowns I was sent are slightly oversized on bore… not by much but enough to cause a tremble above 60 mph so a resolution has been offered.
I’m away for Christmas and New Year (by train) so will sort in January.

« Last post by petec on 23 December 2025, 18:29 »Back along (early part of 2025) my 2018 seemed to half stall randomly when coming to a stop as if the SS was active (although I switch it off every journey), believe there's a service bulletin which recommends battery replacement in such cases, that done and never seen the problem since..

Golf mk7 / Re: DSG oil change
« Last post by Wayne.R on 23 December 2025, 18:14 »An old thread....I know...
But, my car is ready for it's 3rd DSG fluid and filter change.
I have VCDS so can monitor the temp level, just purchased 5 litres of Liqui Moly 8100 DSG fluid, and the coupling to add to my bleeder bottle, to screw into the gearbox opening.
Are there any tips or things I need to be aware of, when doing this?
I've read that the engine, has to remain running when dropping the final fluid, once it's up to temp. Any truth in that?
Also, how much have I got to cycle through the gearbox, when the new fluid is in and coming up to temp?
Cheers
Wayne.
