Quick question, are all the DSG boxes the same or are the GTI version different?

cheers

There are three fundamentally different types of DSG gearbox, but to refer to the 6-speed dual wet clutch version fitted to the Mk5 Golf - there are probably more than a hundred different versions.  Gear ratios, final drive ratios, 2-wheel drive or 4, even differing software.

Why do you ask?

The best way is to get a like for like.  That is determined by the three letter id code.
