My loan approve edy.. hope my car dont hv dsg problem... huhu

You should hope that your car don't have engine problem.
Not only DSG, 1.4 TSI also a bit of risk. Really nice to drive but.....hope for the best!

Mineral oil doesn't fix the DSG gearbox. It is the localized material used in the DSG that solved the VW DSG gearbox. Based on technical department info, they already solved the DSG defective issue in earlier batches VW with localized material suited for our hot & humid climate.

You can always check with real owners at the SC for few days to few weeks to even few months survey whether any more DSG failure issue after the recall and localized CKD units.

Never trust forum 100% as those who came here could be competitor marketing staff or some CIKU that relies on hearsay spread by competitor.

Don't see how mineral oil would solve it lol. Maybe use something like Pentosin FFL-4 which is a lot more heat resistant. Or by the very least Motul DCTF which is a very modern formula.

Some people recommend using Castrol's Transmax Dual, but I believe that stuff prefers Getrag built boxes rather than Borg derived ones like the DSG.

Agree with u bro...

Then why should we be trusting you...?

But one of the reason I choose jetta compare to sylphy and altis because of the VW SA.. the SA convince me well.. I keep asking about dsg problem and he can answer all my question well..

The jetta seat is very comfortable compare to sylphy.. the engine performance is very good compare to others which r 1.8 and 2.0cc car..

But I want to know more about the problem. the info i got from net is not really satisfy.

what was the SA's answer to DSG problem

What did you ask and what did he answer?

When I ask VW SA about DSG issue, he only answer me that they have very good roadside assist service

Dsg and conti car is not same like japanese car.. I agree with him.. from what he said, the car that manufacture in 2014 hs less problem.. he admit that vw service is quite slow. But they try to improve their service.. about the dsg problem, after their rectification to change mineral oil and upgrade the software (set the car power less), the problem seems lesser.

Im asking him about jerking at g1 n g2, he told me that is the characteristics of dsg gearbox.. I also forgot what he said. But he said actually dsg just like manual gearbox. But at high speed, the jerking gone..

He also said, not all pandai jaga kereta.. some people just lanyak pakai.. some people very details which cannot here some weird sound in his car..

Banyak lagi the SA told me.. im at the VW MHZ Autohaus I think for about 3 hours just talk2 n test drive...

Lastly, he said, just book laa.. pay rm500, if cancel, can refund.. I cannot tahan, just book liao.. haha

You don't have to trust me. I didn't tell mozact89 to trust me. In fact, I encourage him to find out the actual facts personally without being influenced by any person nor party. Obviously never trust SA and marketing staff neither.

Yaa. I didn't say I believe the SA. But I like how he treat customer.. not like toyota SA. My face looks like budak2, he thought I xda duit kot nak beli altis.. I really mad with toyota SA at jalan pahang.. after test drive, trus belah.

Told you already; you should hope that your car don't have engine problem. tongue.gif

VW needs to open a few more service centres so consumer ca easily booking for slot

Hmm... similarly let's say if Proton were to mention their power windows depends on how the you use it. If you used it abnormally of course got problem; and said the problem was solved with WD40 spray. Can believe?


For Proton you hope no power windows problem; for VW you hope no DSG and TSI issue.

Power window doesnt effect ur car to breakdown bro..

Power window switch replacement cheap only...Rm200 to Rm300 kawtim....gearbox?
Even a replacement will not fix since the problem is in the design.
And yes..I have replaced a power window switxh for my Savvy once in 7 years..no big deal.

AFAIK, Proton never mentioned WD or minyak jagung will fix power windows...
At least, no such BS...lol

imagine ur window kenot come up while storm is coming

DSG is a more advanced manual gearbox, yes. It has 2 sets of gears, 1, 3, 5, 7 and 2, 4, 6. It can switch between those, so while you're in 1st the other gearbox will select 2nd. When it goes to second the first gearbox will go to 3rd. It will try to predict what is next.

VW tried to explain why mineral oil is supposed to help. You can try to find that explanation on the net.

The SA teach me a bit about the GB. hope with the mineral oil, the problem can be solved.
