dsg trouble
« on: 23 January 2010, 14:58 »
Hi

I have a 08 golf gti dsg which i bought early last year, in September time last year i noticed when i was in 'd' accelerating from junctions it wasn't changing smoothly between 1-2 2-3, it was jerking pretty bad sometime, this only happened a handful of times a month tho, never the less i booked it in at vw.

I was told it needed a new metertronics unit, 2 weeks later when i went to collect the car they told me they had put a brand new dsg gearbox in :-).

Now 3 months on the exact same problem is happening again, its not as server as last time, but the change is not smooth as it should be, again its only happening a handful of times a month.

So i have booked it in again for next week, after having a brand new gearbox already put in tho i can't believe i am still experiencing problems, and will the same happen again after it goes bk this time.

My warranty is due to run out in may, because they have put a new dsg gearbox in already is that covered for a certain period of time even if my manufactures warranty has run out? if so how long?

I do love the dsg gearbox but with all the problems i may have to go bk to manual :-(
