Scirocco Central

Update: It reversed the problem... now the car's DSG jerks when it drops from 2nd to 1st gear. It only does it when fully warmed up and it's now back in the VW shop...third time lucky. I'm going to have my own car park space in there soon

Update: They have now changed the clutch pack and it seems to have fixed the jerks in 1st and reverse. Fingers crossed that's the last of the issues with the DSG for the time being.

Update: The car was returned with the new DMF (Dual Mass Flywheel), but after a couple of days and a decent run the cars back to lurching in 1st and reverse gears. Went back to VW and a senior engineer went out with me to experience it, they have booked it back in again for further tests. Watch this...

Update: VW garage called today and said it is leaking from the flywheel, they have to order a part (which is apparently on back order) they also said they would check the gearbox further while it is stripped down for signs of damage. I'll update when I hear anything else.

Thanks C,

I'll wait and see what VW do... as they still have the car at the moment. Guess the only worry is if the DSG box has been damaged due to the 'low' oil.

Will update the forum when I found out more.

Thanks RW1, the VW garage came back today and said they found a small leak and would need to investigate the leak further. Does anyone know if there are sensors on the gearbox to show low oil? I've not seen it dropping any when parked... might just be a coincidence. Mine is a later 6 speed with a wh...

I'm in a similar situation, but with a 6 speed 59 plate. It's at the VW garage now and they claim it's not 'faulting'. They had a engineer experience it prior to booking it in but now want to reproduce it. I've told them they need it warmed up before it will go jerky. Mine tends to do it when you pu...

I'm interested in a Fiscon kit too Bluedjlatte, I'd like to add what does such a kit cost to be installed? Assuming an installer is recommended?

Nice One...

Your right, it was actually from the drivers side I'm not too sure how it made it's way over to the other side but either way thanks... was bugging me where the hell it had come from!!

Wonder how long before it falls out again

Hi Peeps, Wasn't sure where to post this exactly... apologies if it's in the wrong section. Anyone know what/where this small cover goes on the scirocco, I found in the passenger footwell, but can't see where it came from. I've attached some photos below. Thanks Paul. http://www.londondesigner.com/s...
