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,

    I spotted where the DSG filter is on the single turbo model and I would imagine its the same for both models , if you look over the back of the engine just to the left of the battery box you can see a large hex head nut thing which is the same as the engine oil filter cap . Not where your arrow is pointing further left .
    Excellent, I’ll have a look. Thanks for the tip.Just bought car with no service history. Want to renew all fluids and Filters.

      Thanks. With a similar noise from my 2013 T5 diesel DSG that I have tried to ignore for a couple of years, I finally read your post. I got my local VW service centre to see if there were any updates available; as a result the problem was solved , and I have a feeling that the gear change has improved.
      BUT why did VW think that I should have to pay $165 just to get my gear box to operate the way it was meant to in the first place????
