I managed to get onto the burm of the highway and stop. Before calling the dealer we did a search and came across this site. Complaint Number: 10402758 Incident Date: May 10, 2011 Date Added to File: May 25, 2011 Description of the Complaint: I was to service my 2006 volkswagen jetta tdi with dsg transmission. The contact was unable to move the vehicle and it was towed to an authorized dealer. On average, it consumes a mere 6.
This transmission has slipped out of gear twice while traveling on the interstate at interstate speeds. The 2006 model is not for some reason included in this recall. All other shifting responses seem to be normal. The contact took the vehicle to another dealership called wallace volkswagen in tennessee. Heaven forbid I had been going faster and this happened or someone had hit me in the intersection as I tried to turn across traffic. So if I never use the clutch option and keep it in automatic mode at all times, how can the internal clutch have a problem? Also thunking when shifting gear selector into reverse. My dashboard transmission indicator lights started flashing.
Both engines will be available later on with a maintenance-free diesel particulate filter. The manufacturer was not contacted. The maximum output comes at 6,000 rpm. It was leaking oil from the transmission. The failures recurred on numerous occasions. I wonder how many other have had this problem. The contact owns a 2006 Volkswagen Jetta.
Volkswagen customer service has denied a further inquiry into the manufacturing dates of the mechatronics units and their technical revisions, only going off vehicle model years and build dates despite other 2006 owners reporting identical circumstances with their vehicles. All other engines are connected to six-speed gearboxes. I had the transmission rebuild. The stabiliser bar attachment reduces the body roll. The dangerous part is when the mechatronic unit fails the car is placed into limp mode. Can someone please advise on how to turn it off? Gearbox Except for the Jetta 1.
This happens at start up and at running temperature. The new Volkswagen six-speed automatic transmission with TiptronicĀ® is available as an option. The five-seater saloon is 1. Can someone tell me how to do it. Also the car slams into the lower gears when downshifting. Tried park, neutral, reverse nothing happened.
To Piech's credit, the hidden wipers do indeed lend a more upscale look. When she did that and was able tor restart, the check engine light illuminated. It seems to occur when it is rolling free at near 5 to 10 mph, and when the accelerator is pressed nothing happens for a second or two. A failure of the mechatronix unit in the dsg was discovered and part replaced. Its in the dealership as of march 12, 2012 and they are charging me for changing the metatronic unit in the transmission. Less than a week prior to the scheduled service I hear a unique scraping type sound unchanged by acceleration. Back center console would not stay in place.
Vehicle regained power 2-3 seconds after loss. The trunk is a canyon. You could do some basic troubleshooting like checking the air filter, the oil level, the spark plugs, etc. The failure mileage was 88,530. It was very hot, around 100 to 110 and I was driving on the freeway. Vehicle lurched and lost power as if gas had been switched off or transmission was unexpectedly disengaged from engine.
There is no warning signs on the dashboard to notify the driver of any problems. It can occur when the engine is cold or hot. I was asked by the dealer if I could bring the car back in because of a noise that was heard coming from the transmission. The dealer stated they had to replace the sensors. Evidently, your cooling system is not turning it on. The manufacturer advised they were not aware of the failure, and offered minimal assistant towards the purchase of a new vehicle, or the new transmission.
