Golf 5 Gti DSG box
So I been driving the car around for a while and I started noticing a heavy jerk when the car changes gear in auto mode and sometimes in manual. This mainly happens between 3000-5000rpm. The car is a 2006 model and is doin about 96 000km. Has anyone experienced this before? What could this be? Noticed it was more pronounced after I did the software and exhaust. It used to do this once in a while before that but not as hard of a jerk as now.

Re: Golf 5 Gti DSG box
Most definitely your Mechatronics that need replacing.

Re: Golf 5 Gti DSG box
What is that exactly? And what would the cost of replacing be?

Re: Golf 5 Gti DSG box
It's the control unit of the gearbox..it is very pricey. I think around R40 000.
It gave problems on pre - 2008 cars..it is sorted now.
How many km's have your car done and did you do the 60 000km DSG oil change?

Re: Golf 5 Gti DSG box
The car is currently doing about 96 000km. Was regularly serviced with the agents so the oil should have been changed but I will go back and check up on that.

Re: Golf 5 Gti DSG box
Made a stop at vw earlier, could be mechatronics, clutch or software on the box. Will only know for sure when the car goes in. Still looking at quite a sum for those items.
