I have an Audi A3 and the Mechatronics failed at 83000 miles. I had a warning to say the clutch was overheating and to stop the car. When I stopped there was smoke coming out of the engine compartment. I wish it had caught fire as the repair cost me £1548 and I have lost faith in the car completely. I did contact AUdi who simply did not want to know. These parts are not manufactured with a long life in mind. Would not touch another DSG. I think I will be going back to manual but with the way they responded it will not be from the german car group.
