Hi again guys on behalf of my mate who owns a Transporter T5.1 with DSG those 3 letters which strikes fear into the heart of many . Ok frivolity aside , he had his serviced by VW last year at the 150000 mark . They changed the fluid and did a software update as well , he told me the van didn't feel the same after the service with gear changes . Now just today the box has decided to go bye bye , an independent VW mechanic that I use told him the Mechtronics has gone to lunch . So my question has anyone had experience with either rebuilt recoed or replacement mech unit and where can they be sourced from other than VW , Thanks in advance for any suggestions . PS this this was the same one last month or so back with a leaking transmission cooler any connection maybe ?

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,
