Audi S3 Dq250 S-Tronic Gearbox Replacement

[s3_Project]

Hi All,

I new to the Forum.

I was wondering with the fountain of knowledge you all have, can someone help choose the right replacement for my knackered gearbox.

At the minute my gearbox (LRK) is grinding in 1st and 3rd gear, so i need to replace it ASAP?

Does anyone know the best dq250 gearbox replacement for the CDL TFSI Engine?

Cheers

Hi.....is your car already running a DSG box?

If so,a DQ500 would make a very good replacement if you can find one.

If not,then swapping from manual to DSG is doable but expensive.

This thread may help a lot....

Ohh ok I was thinking more like a new dq250. (My existing gearbox is DSG)

Never really thought of a dq500. What dq500 would be suitable to use?

RS3/TTRS, Tiguan or a Transporter? What is required to do the full conversion?

Thanks for your help

DQ500 is a very tough box and will deal with 500+lbs on stock clutches.
The thread I linked to will help you with choosing and ideally an RS box.
