My brand new Polo GTI 2012 auto grinds in 3rd gear. they told me there were no recorded errors (I don't even think they look at the engine at all), quoted TPI and told me to go away.
I wish I never bought a VW.
Is it really grinding or is it just making the usual DSG rattling/vibration?
I have a TSI manual and the gearbox is superb. Best I have ever come across. Absolutely no noise, grinding or anything. Shifts into first and reverse are as smooth and silent as all the other gears.

"Try this. Shift into first before you shift into reverse. Worked every time for me."

My old hilux used to grind mostly going into reverse, shifting into 1st first would work to negate it. I also found that if it started to make the grindy sound, simply back to neutral, clutch out, clutch back in, (double-clutch?) then into reverse with out the grind!
