DSG jerky take off (outside of warranty)

[hercules78]

Thanks for sharing.  Good luck on Tuesday and let me know how it goes.  If you get some success then I may just part with some cash and take out the warranty.

Got mine going in to VW next week for a DSG reset and restore - they seem to think this will do the trick, or at least that I should rule it out first.  Fortunately I haven't had the flashing on the dash yet, so Im hoping its got a while yet.  Got a VW mechanic to take it out last week and he said he did notice a slight jerk on take off but said other than that it drives pretty well considering its done 90k. 

Fingers crossed for you mate

tbh ive got a garage to perform dsg reset/ calib or whatever you call it and it does work but its like a temporary fix, its also something to do with the temperature level ive noticed and read on various different forums and read a lot of it online, but the common faults dsg faults get worse, it did with mine, got the garage to do a dsg service, they filled it up with the dsg oil and other bits associated with a dsg service and it was perfectly fine for a month or two but then the symptons came back, A1 Transmission is currently still dealing with mine, they called me and have ordered a new mech unit from Germany which is programmed also, so waiting for them to tell me when its here ( they said around 7 days for it to arrive ) once they've put the new unit in, they gonna do more testing to see if it has resolved it, im pretty confident now that having a new mech unit should resolve it :), once I get an update or when I get the car back ill post here to let you know :)

UPDATE:

so my car is back now, long story short, wow car feels a lot better now, not jerky at all!, smooth gear changes happy bunny, noticed one thing though, drivers side mirror looks like its been replaced
