DSG Transmission Repairs: What You Need to Know
Q1: What is a DSG transmission?
A DSG (Direct-Shift Gearbox) is an automatic transmission with dual-clutch technology. It allows faster gear changes, smoother driving, and improved fuel efficiency. However, like all gearboxes, it can develop faults over time that require specialist DSG gearbox repair.
Q2: What are the common DSG gearbox problems?
Some frequent DSG issues include:
- Delayed or rough gear changes – often caused by clutch wear or hydraulic faults
