Sorry to hear about this. But good you got a new clutch. My problems sort of disappeared during the winter here in Scandinavia - and we went on ski trips etc. But now with the warm weather coming back, the vibration is a bit more noticable again. The problem does not seem to get worse, but we´ll see. The cars has been driven 110 000km. Another 10 000km and the gearbox is not insured any more. A control of the DSG will cost around 500€. I don´t know about this. Fixing the problem might cost 2500€ - but would hopefully be covered by insurance for now. We are keeping the car until it´s done hopefully another 3-6 years before going electric or bio-gas.

I might have problems with my DSG7 (dq200) in an Octavia 2014 1.4TSI (used in traffic since October 2013). Sometimes I get a vibration when the gearbox goes from 1st to 2nd gear. This happens irregularly, but more often when the car is warm after some driving and/or the summer weather is hot. Otherwise the gearbox is pleasant to drive. The car has been driven 105 000km, and soon it will not be covered by my insurance. I might have three options: Stay cool - this is normal behaviour for the gearbox and car. Take it to the VW-dealer and let them have a look. They may or may not be able to replicate the issue and fix it. It could be a waist of time and money. I get a little worried when reading forums about this, but then these are not proper sources of information. Get rid of the car - the problem might be ok for now, but it will likely to get worse over time, when the car is not covered by insurance any more. I’m thinking of changing to a manual Touran(2016-). We wouldn’t mind some more space, LED-lights and a MPV - we are missing our old Roomster =). I wish I had bought a manual to begin with.
