Combi and DSG 230 km/h and without the box 220 km/h.

Andrew is great until problems that they can't solve appear. I have driven over 25 000 miles with this box and most of the time everything works ok. When outside temperature goes higher problems starts to appear. Throttle response is jerky and sometimes throttle starts to "pulsate". Andrew asked me to test different settings and I spend couple of days changing the settings and logging with VCDS. It seemed like the problems had something to do with the particulate filter regen process. No matter what the setting is, when the DPF regen process started, throttle response became jerky. It feels like nothing happens when you push the pedal. But when you push the pedal deep enough, dsg will change one or two gear downwards and car starts to go like all hell is breaking loose. Makes it really hard to drive the car in a civilized manner. Then came Trevor and Andrew promised to change my box to that new one to test it out, as long as I don't mention it on the forum. Weeks passed but nothing happened. Asked again about the box change but no reply. Weeks passed again and the old box was working fine, because summer was over and air was colder. But then jerkyness occured again and I told it to Andrew. I asked also about the box change. Finally he replied, "send your box to us and we test it in our skoda." I'm not living in GB and most of the time box works just fine, so I'm not going to send it anywhere.

It's really hard to remove the plug when the rail is warm. When it's cool the plug will come off easily.

I looked the HVAC measuring values today. First I changed everything back to it's original state, meaning that the Compressor CO2 Reduction was ON. When the compressor stopped running, measuring values looked like this: So the compressor really shuts off and there is a reason for that. Then I turned the CO2 Reduction OFF, and the compressor kept running. I still don't like humid air inside my car

Medium or high and automatic recirculation is on.

Have to add that if you drive your car something like 30 minutes at a time, there's no problem. But if you drive it 8 hours in a day, like I do, then you will notice these annoying things.

Compressor stayed on about three minutes after defrost. There's nothing wrong with the heating, cooling or the flaps. Only thing that annoyed me was insufficient dehumidifying. It started to dehumidify at some point but way too late to my taste. I really don"t know why is it so hard to understand what is the problem and what I am trying to tell. Maybe most of the people don't think that moist air inside of a car is a problem? Even I don't mind it if I jump in the car and the humidity level inside is same as outside. But once the car has dryed the air and then again starts to blow moist air in, then it feels very uncomfortable. English is not my native language, so I'm not sure if I can point it out right what I am trying to say.

I won't won't start to argue. I know that my car was suffering from excessive humidity but I got rid of it with the VCDS. And I also know it has not a faulty humidity sensor. End of a story.

If I remember right there is at least one which shows how much torque compressor wants from the engine.

There are at least two different versions of Climatronics and how it operates because it says Some, such as the one in the Golf...

Here's a video. Outside temp 15.5C inside 20C, Climatronic Auto position and compressor is off. http://youtu.be/qkv5VQDj3Tc

Guess that's the "old" version without the externally regulated compressor...

Only some of VAG cars have this feature. This is from site http://www.volkswagen.co.uk/technology/comfort-and-convenience/air-conditioning-and-climate-control " Environmentally friendly - no CFCs All air conditioning systems in our cars are environmentally friendly and do not use refrigerants containing CFCs. Some, such as the one in the Golf, feature an externally regulated compressor with an evaporator temperature which can be regulated between 2 and 12 C. This ensures the air is not dehumidified any more than is necessary, reducing the amount of energy required, and therefore fuel consumption." Sad thing is that dehumidifying any more than necessary, is not enough.

No it's not new. It is false It is as I said. No matter if it's Auto or Manual, dehumidifying stops (compressor shuts down) if there is no need for cooling.

No matter which mode is used, it's same with auto and manual mode. But not anymore EDIT: when I say Auto mode, I mean Auto with A/C button pressed. I don't have any idea how it behaves only in auto without a/c button pressed.
