Hi VWJ82. I've dropped you a pm.

Hi all.

I'm 99% certain I saw my old polo gti+ yesterday. Reg of it is PA19 A** (obviously don't want to advertise the full reg) I did a check and it is definitely taxed and insured now.

Just wanted to known if it's anyone on here and if it is if the gearbox is working OK now. I had alot of ...

If I'm honest it hasn't put me off dsg cars or VW's in general. The fact that they have no record of this problem on their worldwide technical database shows that it's such an anomaly. How many million dsg cars must be out there and they have never seen this problem???

I'm thinking of a tiguan r ...

Not been on here in a while so here's the update on what happened with my polo gti+.

Got the car back from the garage in February with the new gearbox in. Drove home and everything was OK. Went out in the car the next day and 2 mins into my drive low and behold the car was sticking in 2nd gear ...

Well time for another update. Still don't have my car back. Now been without it for just over 6 months 😱😱😱.

Slight positive is at the start of November they contacted me to offer me an upgrade on the bog standard 1L polo courtesy car that I have been plodding around in. Got a brand new, only done ...

Thought i should update this with the latest news that I have. They have now replaced an ecu on the car, I'm assuming the gearbox one, but the fault is still occurring.

For the forst 9 weeks I didn't have anything. At first the main thing was getting it in before the warranty ran out and they couldn't give me one at such short notice. Then when they said the mechatronics unit was getting replaced I thought it would only be another week or so before getting the car ...

Well I got an update 2 weeks ago so thought I should put it onto here.

The garage have now replaced the mechatronics unit and took it out a test drive. All seemed fine but on the final test drive before releasing the car back to me the fault reappeared. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Frustration is staring to get ...

Nice one, looks good

Just a wee update on this. Kept my log of all the times the fault was occurring over a 3-4 week period. Booked the car back in (19th july) and gave them the 5 page dossier of all the times the fault occurred. After a week they got in contact with me to say the master tech had managed to get the ...

Thats a good idea. I never thought of that, will have a look into it now.

So I went into the dealership today to speak to the master tech. He explained to me again the story about the DSG learning my driving style and that this explanation has come from VW technical. Because of this there is nothing more that he can do. He said he doesn't agree with it and in his eyes ...

So today I got a phone call from the dealer. Apparently the car is learning the way I drive and that's what's causing the gear to stick. What a load of bullsh**!!! If that was the reason surely the gear should change when I flick the up paddle.

Going in to speak to the master tech tomorrow who ...
