nothing on my DSG 7 aug 2009.

I could not even find any fault reports for DSG 7.. I do hope that this problems affect only DSG 6.. even so I took extended 4 years warranty...

:eek:

Why does DSG have so many issues compared to standard auto?

Quite. Not met anyone yet who's against giving their vRS a good run up the motorway to get rid of any dpf issues.

My June 2009 VRS had this faulty sensor - replaced under warranty (after a 2 week wait)

Outback going, what next?

Aspman · Monday at 11:235 days

After dropping a wodge on the Outback for a new battery only for the tailgate issues to immediately recur and funnily enough for a internet search to suddenly (wasn't before) flag that there is a persistent and long standing Subaru issue with a parasitic battery drain via the telematics module. Basically the car continually tries to phone home and drains the battery, the tailgate control module is acutely sensitive to voltage meaning that if the car has sat for more than a day (sometime less) th

First time starting a project thread, bear with me... Heard about this Roomster not too far from me that might be heading for a scrapyard, and decided to try to acquire it. That went well and it came to my place this last weekend. Early 2012, 1.2 TSI, 5sp manual, 158k miles on the clock. This is it, just after being washed. Paintwork is far from pristine, but that's not something I care much about. I'd looked up the spec via the reg plate before seeing pics of the car, so there were one or t
