Hi there,
Recently bought a lovely 2005 1.6 A3 as a little runaround and it has started experiencing some pretty significant jolts when changing up and down gears 1-3. These don't happen all the time but generally kick in when going up or down hill but are pretty sporadic. We've had the gearbox and engine mounts replaced but its made zero difference.
A few people have mentioned the DSG to me and I was just wondering how I can tell as I can't find an obvious answer. It is a six speed auto with the sport option (flick it to the right and you can manually control the gear change).
I guess the questions are:
"is it a DSG box?"
followed by
"what can I do to get the Megatronic Unit calibrated?"
and
"how much will it cost?"
If not DSG, what else could it be? (Please don't say gearbox!)
Many thanks in advance!
