DSG woe update

[Hurdy]

Cheers again TT

I'll price up the price of changing the clutchpack pronto and also a Quaife at the same time (rude not to )

I'll keep everyone posted

That is the final drive, with the original "open" diff.  The "open" doesn't mean that the cage is open, but rather the torque flow through the diff is open, or free to take whichever output path from the diff.




This is the same final drive, but with the Quaiffe bolted to it.

The clutchpack, showing the inner and outer clutches.




And the top cover for the "even" inner clutch.  Another cover fits over that one, and works on the outer clutch.

OK.

Some part numbers to help:
02E 305 051 C - oil filter element
G 052 182 A2 - DSG gear oil (1 litre)
N 910 845 01 - metal seal, drain plug

If you only do an oil change, then it takes 5.5 litres, however a complete stripdown and rebuild needs 7.2 litres.

Furthermore, if a non-VAG workshop does the work, they will need:
VAS 6262 - tool, oil filler DSG
Though independent who has changed the DSG ought to have this.  VAG-COM will also be needed, for checking the oil level, and carrying out a reset of the mechatronics values.

There is some seriously complicated crap happening in those dsg pictures.. something is bound to go wrong

RR, at what mileage did you have your remap?

And did you get chance to examine the condition of the old oil and filter from the DSG?  Did the fresh oil make any difference to the quality of the shift changes?  And finally, can you remember how much you were charged for the DSG service?

....Remap Revo Stage1 at 23k miles, now done 51k miles. Mechatronics Module was replaced at about 6k miles.

....Seemed a little smoother but too difficult to realistically tell (placebo effect) and there wasn't a shift change problem previously.

....DSG Service cost me 'nothing' (I had full Maintenance Plan which included it).

....I personally didn't see the old filter nor old oil but was told it was fine.
