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.

If changing clutches - or doing another similar expensive repair to the dq200: can one expect the DSG7 to work properly another 150 000km? Or is the gearbox to complex to get fixed once the problems occurs after 90 000km? I mean - do the wear on different parts, like clutches, affect other parts of the box? I can´t really decide. Keep the car when it´s not covered by insurance in a couple months or not =)

Thank you e-Roottot. I tried my VIN and got the information "No relevant recall campaigns have been launched by ŠKODA for the entered VIN ". When I bought the car I was told that it had got the new oil. The VW-Skoda dealer here has all the information about the car in their computer. If I don´t trust the VW-Skoda dealer here, it´s better to give up the car.

I do not know these kind of stuff. I hope the VW-dealer do =) The gearbox got an update maybe two years ago during service, and it has the mineral oil.

Thanks for your advices. I think I´ll pay the VW-dealer to get it checked. The gearbox is too complex for me to do anything. I might sell the car in the end. I get the impression that these problems reocurrs for some people, at least the angry ones writing in forums. Our air condition broke down this summer as well. I get the feeling more is coming, but I do not know what =)

I went to the local VW-dealer, where we usually service our car. They immediatly understood what I was talking about and wanted to investigate the car. Maybe it will cost up to 400€ - they spoke about reading codes and so on. If it comes down to changing clutch and stuff it might end up with 2000€ or more. DoppelScheisseGetriebe 😃

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.
