Yep my GTD crunches from 1st to 2nd when cold and has done for 22k miles. Slightly better when warm. I had a VW Touran which did exactly the same until I got rid of it at 90k miles. Took that back after 5k miles and the deaaler had it for 4 days to try it from cold and said there was nothing wrong with it.

Our Fabia VRS with DSG doesn't crunch in any gear, just burns oil and the box will fail completely one day :sad:

no probloms on my GTD finding reverse . but i do find going from first into second a bit notchy /sticky especially when cold ? anyone else have this ?
its going back to the dealer soon to have it looked at in any case...

I thought this was perhaps just me being sensitive, but I also get this.

Its a feature, my mk6 GTD manual did the same from about 10k miles all the way to 80k miles before I chopped it in, did get slightly worse but not enough for VW to fix it. They just agreed with me that it was notchy. 0-10k miles was as smooth as possible.
