The VW and Audi vehicles equipped with the DSG (Mechatronic) 6-speed gearbox system commonly experience a significant problem with the transmission control module/conductor plate. The issue often presents as an intermittent flashing of the P R N D S light and the gearbox going into neutral (N), rendering it unable to select forward or reverse gears. In some cases, the problem resolves temporarily after cooling down, but it will eventually become more permanent if not addressed promptly.

Main dealerships usually resort to purchasing expensive new units from the manufacturer, which come with a mere 1-year warranty. However, this approach overlooks the root cause of the problem, leading to the same defect reoccurring after the short warranty period.

We have a more consumer-friendly solution – rebuilding the original unit with engineering improvements to prevent future failures.
