Sarah18. Hi I’m new to the site. I’d be grateful for advice re my 2011 Yeti 1.2 DSG 7 gearbox failing at just 34000 miles Sudden problem of judder in 1st gear, was driveable though AA fault code suggested clutch pack problem. Towed to gearbox specialist who diagnosed probable mechtronic and clutch pack failure, likely £3000 -£4000 to fix.
Skoda is gearing up to launch their new mid-size SUV known as Kushaq. It will be launching in June with deliveries starting in July. The Kushaq will be available in two engine options and two gearbox options. One of which will be the DQ200 7-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic gearbox. This transmission has had a bad rep of having failures in the past. However, when a Twitter user asked that if
Dual-clutch gearboxes don’t merely leave you, the driver, to sit there and watch the action unfold, after all. To get the most out of one, you must interact with it in much the same way as you
The S tronic dual-clutch transmission is reliable if well maintained. However, DSGs (which the S Tronic is) are very expensive to fix if they go wrong. We haven't had any reports of reliability issues of this auto gearbox in a Q2, but we have had reports of DSG issues in the part. The DQ200 DSG gearbox traditionally has been problematic.
The interior is comfortable and the trim in the vRS is good. If you are tall rear leg room in this mk2 octavia may be a bit tight. The ride on my car (17" wheels) is good although you do feel the
VW Group are dropping DQ200's soon with 1.0 & 1.5 TSI's unless with Mild Hybrid. Before they do Skoda are bringing out the Fabia Mk4 1.5 TSI with a DQ200 DSG. DSG can break like a manual gearbox can. The only difference is the repair will be more costly than the manual. Be prepared to pay if the worst happens.
The oil is for entire gearbox, mechatronics and clutches and it’s not ATF (ATF automatic transmission fluid is for automatic gearboxes, NOT for DSG direct shift gearboxes). It is necessary to replace it every 120000km. I strongly suggest using original VW/Skoda part when replacing and at a Skoda workshop.
