I got told a story just yesterday from a friend wife tried taking the car in for suddenly losing power. Caused by the dsg. They refused warranty saying the car had modified. All that the car had added from new was a baby seat. They took it to everyone they could without going to vcat.. Apparently got fixed but now they're chasing the bill. $8k for a replacement

+1 to there being more to this story.

There's always two sides. But I've seen the car and its definitely not modded, and they've had it since new so..

Reading the news article it seems like vw are doing any/everything to cover their asses. Which kind of make me believe my mate even more

But this is the news, which is almost always tainted

Parents Tiguan had oil leak, b4 even checking what was wrong they dropped a new DSG in it.

then found out it was a leaking head gasket.

SO seems that yeah they having much trouble with them so assume everything is caused by it.

guy in my team at work has a 180sx type x that's painted pearalescent purple with work meister TE35's, big turbo, huge intercooler and a forged SRDET20

it got dyno'd and made 285kw

BRO!

why anybody in this country would spend money on a golf when you can get a commodore for 1/4 of the price that will outperform it everywhere and rip skids is beyond me...

there is only one explanation,, top bloke hipsters....

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
