VW & Audi DSG Gearbox ECU

VW and Audi DSG Gearbox ECU problem (Mechatronic Control Module Fault)

Malfunction of the 6-speed DSG transmission ECU is very common across all Audi and Volkswagen vehicles with this Mechatronic gearbox.

Failure usually begins intermittently with the P R N D S lights flashing and the gearbox dropping into neutral (N) position, worryingly this also happens whilst driving. When parked the gearbox may fail to select forward or reverse gears leaving the vehicle stranded with no way to move it until the vehicle has cooled down.

These faults will always become more permanent with time. When presented with a failure of the 6-speed DSG Mechatronic you may think to replace the part with an expensive new unit from manufacturer as your only option. However, the common faults with these units are inherent and have not been worked-out at manufacturer level. Meaning that short 1-year warranty you get with new will not be sufficient to cover the impending malfunction.

We offer a better solution: we test and rebuild your own unit, keeping all original programming, and work-out the faults present since manufacture level. This will be completed in 2-3 working days and our Lifetime warranty will provide peace of mind, though we expect the rebuilt unit not to fail anyway.

Common Failure symptoms:

• PRNDS flashing
• Loss of forward and reverse gears
• Dropping out of gear while driving
