Hi
In this video I will take you through the dismantling and re-assembly of a mechatronics unit from a DSG 7 Speed gearbox.
The unit was failing to build pressure, making the car to jump out of gear, and throwing a P189C and a P0841...
I have mistakenly, gave some inaccurate torque settings for some steps, watch the video fully, as I will correct myself later... also, this torques are just my own feel, as I don't have any credible sources with the torque settings for this procedure...
Feel free to share it if you have them...😉

Hope you enjoy the video.

Thank you so much for this video. I had a P17bf fault but like you when I dismantled the mech I could not find any obvious reason for the fault. I replaced the accumulator with an aftermarket one and then replaced most of the seals as per your video. The hardest part was getting the clutch actuator sleeves out. I ended up putting on a latex cleaning glove which gave me more purchase on the sleeve. All back together and working a treat, no faults and pressure is correct. 👍

[@LMAutoRepairs]

☺️ That's great! 👍👍👍

[@atashli]

hi my friend i have the fault code p189c Function Restriction due to Insufficient Pressure Build-Up , car jumps out of gear when driving ... and pump is constanly working , but accumulator looks fine and the thread also its not broken? could it be the accumulator self ? like yours no damage at all at first sight.

[@LMAutoRepairs]

@atashli Could be the accumulator... But could also be the many seals and gasket leaking slightly, and when all add up... 👍👍👍

[@atashli]

@@LMAutoRepairs who put it apart said the seals were fine , so could be the accumulator or the base of it maybe a little crack its not visible enough.. will update what it is soon

I own a 2013 Polo 6 TSI with a DSG gearbox. The car has +-64 000km. i encountered a problem with Shifting of gears from P to D, and from P to R, (P=Park, D=Drive, R=Reverse) first attempt the R/D doesn't engage, they just start flashing on the dash screen and car wont move WHEN YOU PRESS IN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. Its Only the second attempt when you I put it back to P and then shift back to R/D, only then it will engage. I then took it to a mechanic for diagnostic. Mechanic said that there was some fault on the Mechatronics showing low pressure on the Diagnostic machine. although there was no any fault indicating light on the car dash screen. He then ordered a mechatronic kit and he serviced it...and the car was fine since then. but after only 3 days, same issue started again (flashing of Drive and Reverse gears) . now he said i must take the car back so he check again. I'm yet to take it back. has anybody experience something like this before...what do i have to look out for when i take it to the mechanic? Thank you.

Now that i know that the gearbox have issue how can i check the mechatronic unit to be sure is with no problem?

[@LMAutoRepairs]

@motan31 Yes, the top left is for reverse and 6th gear. Could be the fork bent, not comom, but not unheard of either... The linear bearings of the fork can also fail, making the fork movement difficult or jamming the fork completely. But for that, you need to dismantle the rest of the gearbox... 👍👍👍

If you have the mechatronics removed, there is no pressure on that accumulator... Use a breaker bar... 👍👍👍👍

[@qio9]

@@nicknick-vr3df If you remove the TCU there will for sure not be any pressure in the mechatronis anymore. However inside the Accumulator there will be 24 bar of pressurized N2. You can unscrew the accumulator from the mechatronics, but do not open the the Accumulator. It requires special tools and procedures to overhaul. My view for the accumulator 20Nm should be enough. I used 30Nm. The accumulator will not rotate anywhere after 15Nm in my case. If you were able to unscrew the Accumulator out by hand it means that the Accumulator was not fully screwed in. The accumulators seems to have a habit in some cases to unscrewing themselves over time. When the o-ring seal becomes visible the system will not maintain pressue and the mechatronics will fail.

However, everything works properly on demand by shifting in manual mode. I have replaced the filter and oil but it is still doing that. But I haven't driven it much since then. Also, would you know how I can clear the error code? Thank you in advance.

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Oil pressure? You might need a good service on the mechatronics... 👍👍👍

@@LMAutoRepairs Thanks for the prompt reply. My transmission code is MFL, if I replace mechatronic with a used one from MFL…would it work or requires programming? Also, what do you mean by good service? Thanks

Luis could you share which pins you connected when you tried to benchtest the Mechatronic? I ordered VCDS cable and would like to benchtest it before assembly since my Mechatronic is still failing to build pressure after rebuild (the pump runs continuously).

Hi sirs. Did you solve the pump running constantly? Do i just need to pin these „can bus“ cables into the vcds plug (on the right position) to be able to read it outside the car?

Hi, did you solve the pump running constantly even after rebuild? Do you know a cause/solution? Sorry thats my first comments on youtube channels. I am not very familiar how to place it correctly. Greats from germany

[@MrBojangles901]

@@TobiasKnoch Hi, Yes but I never bothered because I couldn't get the cables right. In the end the reason the pump ran was because of mechanical error leading to loss of pressure. I had to send it to someone in Germany to replace parts.

Hi again. I writing you from Romania. I have the same problem on my Touran. Dsg7. Dq200. This was the reason for watching you precios video. I ordered a kit repair with the valve body. All seal and body valve replaced but surprise. No pressure at all. My mechatronic has previously repair for the previous owner with kinergo kit. I Bought a sh acumulator OE. one. But no luck. Could be a possibility that the kit repair and seal a bad qftermarket kit? The body valve is identical and is the thick one around the acumulator. If you have any ideea to help me I'll really appreciate. Many thanks.

[@carmelajurubita1041]

What I forgot to tell is when I took last time the mechatroniv unit to check it I try with a drill to spin the motor and in the same time I put oil on the hole and motor axel to the pump and the pressure go up jntil the secure mechanic valve was opened. That means the pump works. But when I fitted to gearbox and vhe k pressure with vcds was no pressure. Only one in all my intention to fix it was ghe pressure at 40bar and the start dropping very very slowly until 27 bars and stayed there. But the pump was running continuously. I dont know if this help hou some how to figured out what happening. May be a bad pressure sensor?? When the pressure was at 40 bar I herds the gearbox noise like a clack.

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Well, I would say, double check that you have tightened everything, and you have not missed any seals, o-rings, etc... If you have replaced the gaskets on the pump, make sure the pump is running freely... Some kits, the pump seals are too thick, and when you tight everything they squeeze the pump gears, and them the motor struggles to run it... Check at what speed the pump is running... Also, the covers of the pump need to be installed in the correct orientation... 👍👍👍

[@carmelajurubita1041]

Many thanks for your quik answer. You right about the pump seals. I've changed them and after that the pump wasnt run freely. I fit back the old seals and refitted on mecatronic. I made the test on the car and 40bars. But not higer then that. Pump speed 2100-2200rpm. After a few minutes goes in fault mode for missing pressure. Probably is the pump.

Hey Luis, I'm having a hard time with my rebuild. Is it possible to get a paid video consultation from you? Something like 30-60 minutes. Alternatively you can pick out some stuff from your wish list you'd like to have. Could really use some help right now. Thanks :)

[@LMAutoRepairs]

What are you struggling with? 👍👍👍

[@MrBojangles901]

@@LMAutoRepairs I did the rebuild and it went fine but pressure couldn't build so the pump kept running. The only problem I could find when I first took it apart is that there was a significant amount of debris on two solenoids which I cleaned. The solenoids were tested and all worked and sounded the same when actuating. Then when I took it apart the second time I found that the O ring on the accumulator had split partly but looked fine otherwise. I believe that it could have happened due to not using any grease or oil when installing it to the new (and dry) valve body housing. Could this be the issue? I didn't use a torque wrench so maybe there was unequal distribution of tension on the screws? Although I felt I was tightening them all pretty much the same. My idea now is to take everything apart. Clean it with solvent and compressed air. Put it all back and torque everything the same. The new valve body came with the extra screw on the side and the pin on top but I'm now starting to question if there is a ball in there or not or if I was supposed to transfer the ball or balls from my original housing. Is it okay to take the pin out and the screw to check or is it very hard to put back together? Sorry for the long text but I tried to compress it as much as possible.

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Easy to put back on... Yes, some housings come without it... You need to make sure that is in place. Also, check and double check the pump... if in doubt, get a new pump... 👍👍👍

[@MrBojangles901]

@@LMAutoRepairs Okay let's see the latest development... I got a new O-ring. My tightening torques are, 5 Nm Solenoid plastic housing 12 Nm Valve body screws 35 Nm Accumulator The result is 6.5 bar in VCDS. I know the accumulator is low torque but I wanted to see how it changes so I hit the accumulator with somewhere between 45 - 50 Nm. This time I get 9.5 bar So my question to you, sir, is if you believe that I can achieve the needed pressure if I go to 70 Nm with the accumulator or if there is something else that's going on or needs to be tightened? It's just really scary for me to apply that kind of torque to that flimsy looking aluminum housing. I feel like I'm going to break it.

[@LMAutoRepairs]

Is the pump running freely and to the right RPMs? Perhaps a bad or worn pump? As for the torques, I usually do it by feeling, as I never really found decisive torque settings... surely they are it there somewhere though...😊
