Hi All,
Just registered so this is my first post. I picked up on this DSG issue and I wanted to let everyone know that I had a new Mechatronic module fitted this week, and the problem, exactly as described, now seems to have been solved. They knew exactly what it was but did some extra diagnostic checks just to confirm, because of the cost of the repair. (Their story not mine).
Mine actually rolled backwards on slight inclines and jerked dramatically when pulling away. It was so bad that my wife refused to drive it - woooohoooo! If they try to tell you it is OK, demonstrate by stopping on a slope.
I am reasonably confident, because the improvement is dramatic, although I have only driven it about 10 miles.
I will update with any news.

I have had my Ed30 back since yesterday and the mechatronic module has been replaced.  It now drives like a dream.  No kangeroo jumps, I still have to get used to it as I keep expecting the car to jump forward when I move off and it doesn't  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I'm absolutley gagging to get it remapped etc... but want to do it properly -i.e. want to have the suspension and brakes done at the same time.  Plus I'm waiting on a job in Qatar - might have to go this year - so am holding off until then.

Quick update on my DSG. Mechatronic module was replaced about 2 weeks ago, and I can confirm this solved the problem. As with Illyun I spent the first week expecting a "stutter" at the lights, or rolling back on slopes, or worse reversing into a parking space, but so far it has been a delight. I think I can say with some confidence "Problem Solved"!
