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.

    Dq250 mechatronic plug leak

    Hi. How common is mechatronic connector/plug to leak fluid out of the pins/harness? Is this a bad sign? Can it be repaired?

    There is a breather hole in the middle of the plug.
    Unless there are any fault codes or problematic behaviours, just clean it off.
    Was the DSG overfilled at last service?
    If the proper level procedure isn't used it's easy to over fill.

      Hi. No fault codes. I will take the air box out to gain access and use some contact cleaner. Should I unplug it and clean inside it? Thanks.

        Update: I've cleaned it off and the leak has come back again. No error codes or drivability issues thus far. A little concerning still.
