Just to add it is a 2.0 140 diesel
and have fitted a later canbus (1K0907530Q)
to stop battery drain as i have fitted a RNS315 radio/satnav

The mk6 mfsw fits and most of the buttons work so I would think think the dsg will be ok too.

I have fitted mk6 mfsw to my 140tdi, but mine is manual.

Looks like you have all the parts required, so you're all set :)
