Hey guys newbie from California looking for some help from fellow VW fanatics. I just recently acquired a 2010 VW Tiguan 4motion which I love except for the automatic transmission my previous car was a mini Tiguan (08' VW GTI w/DSG) My question is would it be possible to swap out the auto transmission from the Tiguan and replace it with the DSG from a 2011 VW Golf-R? Since the R is also AWD I can assume it would be a perfect fit am I wrong in assuming this? Any input would be great. Thanks.

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

From what I know the Tig DSG box is from the Audi TTRS not sure about what box the golf R is. There would also be issues with wiring the mechatronic unit and engine ECU which would make it very financially prohibitive IMHO.
