Looking for advice and understanding of a Golf GTI DSG gearbox fault
Hi there ladies,
I am trying to find out some information and have someone give me a bit of honest advice on my car's recent gearbox failure.
I drive a 2007 Golf GTI, which has a DSG gearbox.
Recently it started jerking in first gear and upon taking it to my regular service centre (not VW) they told me it was a mechatronic fault. They can order the parts for me, but to actually fix the thing, it has to be done by VW because of some special coding that needs to be put in.
So, off I went to VW only to be told that yes, it is the mechatronic fault, and that it's going to cost me around AED20000 to fix!!!!
I have trawled forums on VW faults and it does seem like an expensive thing to have gone wrong with the car, but before I go forking out almost half the value of my car, I would like to look at all my options, and not just take VW's word for it....
If anyone has a reputable mechanic that I can speak to then I would be supremely grateful for their details.
Thanks :)
