The Direct-Shift Gearbox (DSG) transmission, developed by VW, traces its history back to the early 2000s when it was first introduced in the MK4 R32 in Europe. This transmission combines the efficiency of a manual transmission with the convenience of an automatic, DSG quickly gained popularity and became a benchmark for dual-clutch transmission technology in the automotive industry.
Today we tear apart the 6 Speed DSG Transmission out of our MK5 R32!
This Trans had problems being stuck in 2nd gear, would go into limp mode with the PRNDS lights flashing, had a loud clicking noise while idle, and had a nasty whine noise on deceleration. We had a feeling that our R32 would need a transmission, so we pulled this one out and saved it for this video! we wanted to tear apart this DSG to both see how these transmissions work and find the damage left behind!

I remember taking one apart at school, to then cut some bits open, create a sort of exploded view, not really exploded view but I hope you get the point, and put it all back together, so the trans could be seen operating to teach new students about this type of transmission (We have also done a CVT and a regular auto aswell before that). Very interesting technique there and I did find it a lot of fun to do, I really enjoyed it....

No kidding. VW didn't put enough development into the manual anyway. The DSG works so well.

Fluid changes aren't too expensive considering. VW dumped a lot of money into development of the DSG and it shows.

Probably a clutch pack issue but diagnosing it specifically is very hard. Generally most DSG problems are either the mech unit or the clutch pack. Pinpointing which one is often not possible. This means you have to either attempt to replace the parts or put a used transmission in. As vehicles get higher mileage we generally recommend a known good used trans as it’s often the most cost effective way to guarantee the vehicle is repaired.

My 2012 Eos 110k miles, died while on the road far from home. Had it towed to nearest VW dealer who said the DSG clutch pack and mechatronic died. They don't repair them, so a new one was needed,. Problem was that they are back ordered in the US for 6 weeks (I wonder why?) and $6-7k to replace. Book value was around $7k. I called 3 VW independent shops who refused to touch them, saying parts are unavailable. The ones that they tried to repair, eventually came back. Considering this and the potential for very expensive roof repairs (read the Eos forums), I sold this headache of a car for $600. No wonder they were discontinued in 2015. We loved driving it around though.

Technically, the first U.S. car with a DSG was the 2003 Audi TT 3.2, but the 2004 New Beetle TDI was the first VW in the U.S. with the DSG.

​My mom has an 2015 A3 1.4 TSI hatchback, which she got new and has been with it since, back in Brazil. This model has the DQ200 transmission (dry clutch DSG), and it is pretty amazing, but it indeed has that infamous unrealiabiity history due to being 'fragile'. This year the trans failed all of a sudden, then she took it to Audi and they covered the services for its replacement, given she did all the services regularly there. It took them 2 months to repair it (mostly due to having to wait for parts to come) and the bill was around 8k USD (rough convertion to the 40k BRL bill), which is nuts considering the car is estimated at around 75k BRL, so more than half the value of it.... Had Audi not covered the repair, it would certainly be scrapped. Apart from that, the car still looks and runs great tho.

The present 1.5 litre Renault Scenic Mk4 7 speed dual clutch automatic gearbox has two dry clutches which means the gearbox oil remains much cleaner for much longer. So far I have not ben able to find a garage to change my 1.5 litre Renault Scenic 7speed dual clutch gearbox oil. I do not trust any dealer garage because after over 50 years of driving I have had to conclude that all the dealer networks are interested in is selling you a new car. I have no doubts that they would be strongly tempted to sabotage the car you already have. I now have 30.000 miles on the clock and I am still trying to find some decent garage or mechanic to change it for me!.

I’ve had an MkV Golf 1.9TDi with one of these and although, I had to spend just over £600 on it to replace the flywheel or the clutch(?) if I remember right, it was the gearbox that changed my view on auto gearboxes. I’ve had various Mercedes (SL, 190E, C/E 4/6 cylinders) and some awful Subarus (Outback/Impreza) with auto gearboxes, but no other gearbox came close to the speed, convenience and comfort of this. I still toy with the idea of getting either an auto GTI or an A3 with one of these.

You completely forgot about the first car to come with a dsg in the United States along with the mk4 gti, the vr6 Audi tt with a dsg in 2004. I own one and it’s amazing, 125k miles shifts perfect

Yes , you CAN buy some parts. Including "that" gasket. See Diagnose Dan recent vid on a dsg solinoid update on an audi dsg. Good luck on finding that bearing though.

its a very good transmision, here you can see that somebody didint make oil changes and a bearing goes missing, normal thing if you dont change oil in 50/60k km, in europe you can get rebuilt set for this trans.

Does changing the DSG oil more often gives more life span?

Personally, for a fun car you cannot beat a decent manual. Yes autos and dual clutches can sometimes make the car faster and more economical but they remove a level of driver involvement.

Hi, how are you ? What a great channel you have, congratulations!! I need a little of your experience. I am in Colombia where they don't know much about Volkswagen and I have a 2020 Golf GTI that I repaired after a crash, but it suddenly stopped starting. and it no longer wants to turn on, I need your experience please to determine what it could be. I have scanned it a couple of times. I am willing to pay you for advice. here in the workshops they don't know what to do, thank you very much in advance and I hope you will help me

When we gonna get a video of Paul trying to rebuild a DSG? I would've like to see what the transmission would've sounded like with replacing the FUBAR'd bearing. ShopDap rebuilt DSGs.
