mechantronics issues are not as common these days but defiantly a few out there, never fancied owning a dsg car out of warranty

Bad times mate, hopefully even if he can't fix it he'll tell you it needs a new mechatronic unit and then VW will fit one.

Sorry to hear this, hope the dealer sorts out for you.

Have to admit though I specifically chose a manual because of the issues the DSG can cause, my mate worked for Audi as a service manager and scared the hell out of me with how troublesome they can become.

Maybe if it was engine our turbo our the clutch pack our box but I'm sure it's the electronic side not mechanical so just have to wait and see, I won't let any tech
Work on my car I make sure it's same guy all the time and he is on a level and knows not to touch ecu

hopefully they will be ok with the map, I had a new clutch and slave a few weeks ago despite the fact they knew it was mapped. similarly they had it in for 4 days this week to look at the clutch again, even though they know it's mapped.. good luck...  :smiley:
