what happened to your gearbox? common problem?

mechatronic failure... apparently quite common with the 7s dry-clutch and the previous gen 6s wet-clutch even across the causeway in spore. goggle it and you'd be worried

Failures due to software is common. It happens to all electronics equipment. Usually a hard reset would resolve the issue unless there is a hardware faulty....then the same problem would happen again and again. I would tend to believe that continuous updates are being released by VW as we speak.

You guys with agent cars should be glad that updates are being loaded onto your car. My PI GTI have been running on 2009 software since new. No chance of any updates which I am sure there are but the local agent charges $$3000 just to look at the car.....part of their adoption program. That is the problem with parallel imports....the people do not know the vehicle well enough or do not have the necessary skill to do critical repairs and diagnosis. Just change and change parts to try resolve the issue.

My GTI mk5 2009 was running up the ram from the tunnel one evening and suddenly I notice the engine speed became very high...was reving at about 6000 rpm running at 40 kmph...and the PRND sign on the MFD was flashing.....had to continue driving even at this very high engine rpm because the ramp was a single lane and there was cars behind me.....after which I pulled up on the Emergency Lane . I thought the Megatronics was a goner ! Switch off and restarted....everything was back to normal. Later I vagcom to find that there was an error in the Transmission 5th solenoid "pressure limit exceeded" ..... not present. Cleared the code and it never happened again after some 6 months later.

Sam you are more than welcome to join us! We usually stay till quite late around sometimes past 12 so do join us. I will PM you my number if you can make it on Thursday 

Thanks Mark.

I try but no promise bcoz mth end need to rush for invoicing.

If not other Vw owner will taruh me kow kow man...  

Business good... go TT can belanja makan laa

How old is your car bro? What did the SC say? Claim warranty, replace part or software update only?

Did you remap your car? And can you describe in more details on what are the symptoms and failure situation?

guys, my friend told me that volkswagen malaysia is going to bring in scirocco r and golf r, is that true?

Yes; definitely launching sometime this year. Just no idea when in the year yet.

Golf R arrived in most of the VW showrooms today. Alot spyshots from VW Club FB page.
