Hello all,
In January I bought a 2007 Passat TDI wagon. It has travelled 188000 km's of which I have done about 7,000. It has been serviced by a VW dealer for all but the most recent service prior to my ownership. Yesterday when taking off I had some shudder and rough gear changes. After stopping at the lights I took off and it wouldn't shift out of 1st gear and the shift lights on the dash started to flash. I pulled over and turned the ignition off and restarted and drive slowly home with the gearbox shifting normally and no flashing lights. I drove it again today about 10 km's and it seemed to be ok again however after having done some research I fear the worst. I contacted VWA by email and got a call back from the dealership in Gosford? who have serviced the car and was told it was probably just a glitch and not to be concerned! Is this something I should follow up on with VWA? I pressume the gearbox has been serviced by the dealer at the 60000 intervals. Any advice would be appreciated.
Pete.
