[@Christaxi]

I have a 2018 Skoda superb diesel SE fault come up on the dash saying something about gearbox and not getting reverse gear I plugged it in and it said clutch sensor to do you know what that means

[@007maark]

where can i purchase a uprated gear selector fork

[@rajeshras9867]

Super explanation bro ❤

[@myozone]

Does the mechatronic unit control the hydraulic with PWM. Looking at SSP-390 it appears to have a 3 position valve for each gear pair but the control valve has only *one* solenoid and a return spring, therefore, I assume it would need to be controled with with a PWM signal to get the 3 positions?

Does the DQ200 require servicing?

[@fadiabdo9976]

I'm getting P0820 no gear indicator on cluster any idea how to fix?

[@ericlarriuz5179]

I have Audi A3 08 2.0 dsg trip tropic when put into drive or reverse I get a grind noise car barley moves in either gear need help

[@user-ys3qz9pm7k]

In my case I have a mk6gti and 3rd gear wont shift up to 4th and all of a sudden D3 indicator gone. My local dealer can't seems to find the problem.

[@edfisher8530]

Hi - I have replaced the bearing with standard as it had snapped and was stuck to the magnets used to operate the Mechatronics unit. The fault I had initially was reverse, 2nd, 4th and 6th gear only. I have put the box back in the car and all seemed well, until again I only had reverse, 2nd, 4th and 6th. It would reset if I turned the car off and on. But now I do not have any forward gears, only reverse. Do you have any ideas?

[@Ecutestinglimited]

Hi. Are you able to scan the vehicle for any fault codes? Due to the initial intermittent nature of the fault, it sounds like it is more likely to be an electrical fault, however without any codes it is difficult to say. If you could email our technical support team at [e-mail] with the scan results and the symptoms of the fault as you have detailed above, then they will assist you further. Cheers.

[@rajaalif7291]

yep , exactly what i had , i cant put into reverse and the gear stuck at gear 6 (dont remember the code) it was an awfully painful to unload the gearbox

[@connorb9097]

This is excellent video production.. wow I have a DQ250 that drives up until the end of 3rd gear. And won’t shift into 4th. BUT if I put it in neutral, if I’m at speed it will skip 4th and go to D5 or D6.. is that clutch pack, synchro, or mechatronic???

[@Ecutestinglimited]

[@JohnsonKibaliMusic]

my VW GOLF MK7 gear is stuck in parking and the P is blinking. My mechanic says the mechatronic unit has failed and i have to replace the whole gear box. Can you repair mechatronic unit without having to replace the whole gear box?

Good morning, I have a problem with my DS gearbox. The light is flashing soon as you turn the ignition on when is in Park and the same thing it’s stuck in park I have to open the cover press the button at the side to drop it into park I park into neutral when I do that the light is still flashing And the car won’t start and it’s saying PNN to put it into them gears to make it start, but when I’m doing that it’s not doing nothing car still won’t start

[@MK3GOLFMIKE]

I had this issue back in December and ended up loss of all gears. Thankfully it was my slider bearing and was fixed but I’m afraid it was a like for like repair. Cost me £1400 to repair.

[@kashman708]

Have a vw Tiguan 2017 emergency transmission mode - no reverse only one gear.

[@Ecutestinglimited]

What is the likelihood and expected mileage of these bearing failures?

[@mk7gti911]

I’ve seen them mostly around 140-150k kilometers!

[@zukhrufhussain2271]

Our one was 20,00 miles

[@MG-ce3dx]

Mine failed at 80.000 miles , car was in mint condition, all of a sudden it wouldn't select any gears and said "gearbox failure" and that was it , quoted by 2 garages around 2.500 grand to fix ,sold it as spares and repairs, just had enough, it's embarrassing that my old Vauxhall Astra from 2002 had the automatic gearbox in perfect condition and my 2015 Golf mk 7 failed so early ,cars these days are so fragile 👎

[@MK3GOLFMIKE]

104k miles so it appears to vary

[@rockybalboap7763]

Your f--ked nowadays? You wont get a reliable auto box nowadays dsg and powershift are absolute joke to fix? Im talking below 5 grand cars here? Maybe older mercedes or saabs you need full automatic not semi or mechatronic or cvt all trash and thousands to repair if your not a home mechanic?

I had VW caddy maxi , gear box and computer moduel needs to be replaced, what a nightmare... never buy european again
