Being a mechanic for 44 years this video has helped me understand the mystery of the hidden secrets of the DSG transmission more that I ever knew. Thank you great techs. Mr asmetofixit. Thank you

i can imagine the sophisticated violin quartet playing on their tuxedos at the corner of the repair shop. this is an elegant, gentleman way to work on an oily transmission.

Thank you very much for this video. You made me understand more things about mecatronic. You are the fist one I have ever seen dismantling mecatronic. The word of mecatronic makes me even afraid. Thanks again.

Dude! thanks for the video, gave me confidence to attempt the repair.

A sure maestro at work, watch this vid over and over can't get enough of it, a very motivating vid, keep more vids coming thanks

Good videoWhen checking the solenoids theres two types you have in the VW 7Speed DSG Gearbox. First you got the shift solenoid that has two positions. OPEN OR CLOSED. it can be energised and de-energised. Thats due to if the solenoid does fail at any stage it will move to its de-energised state and no pressure will be added. Second we have the Variable Force Solenoid can be known as a (liner solenoid) which the name its self speaks alot. It can operate the valve through a range of position not only just OPEN OR CLOSED. That is why the use it for fluid pressure control due to being variable which in turns allowts pressure control to be instantly responsive. When checking them the shift solenoid is usually grounded to the Valve Body and one pin for Live feed. They can operate in two ways. Like a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) or constant voltage applied to it. So when checking them make sure you have a Good ground and 12v or 5v (IF A PWM SOLENOID )

Just repaired a dsg 7. The car was not moving, was towed to the shop, initial diagnostic was too low working pressure about 15 bar, needed 40+, i disassembled mechatronics just like the video and found a crack along one of the threads of the accumulator. The half where the accumulator threads into was found separately with improved design(thicker material on the thread) but went with a new mechatronic witch also had oil in it. Put on the new unit set basic settings with vag-com and VAS, but when put in D slams into gear with engine dying. The new unit would not learn part-worn cluth just with BS, had to carefully start the car and went for a drive about 60km, meantime dsg shifting have much improved, no problem when selecting D after that.

Thank you so much! Very helpful!

Dear RPM, thank you for a great video. I read some of the negative comments by people telling you how you should work. Considering you were one of the first to dismantle a mechatronic you did very well indeed. Not everyone spends thousands on tools and then rip's off customers to get their money back. You were kind enough to share you expertise and findings. However i need a bit of help here in Covid-UK. I have a mechatronic (0AM 325 065 S) on a 7 speed MK7 Golf tsi (2013). Only when the gearbox is used (gets hot) for 5 mins or more, then i get U0101 - Lost communication with TCM. Once it cools down, everything works again. I am very confident that TCM is the reason but this time when removing the mechatronic it almost comes off but gets stuck. I think one piston is getting stuck. Is there a way i can move it by applying power. Any help would be most appreciated.

Thank you very much> can you please help me find the "transmission fluid pressure sensor" location for Skoda Octavia combi 1.6 2014.

Please, explain how to release the pressure to remove the accumulator. Thanks

From the music in the background, this surely shows that it's more complicated than brain surgery

Hi guys, I would like to replace ECU of my 7 speed dsg mechatronic. Do I need to release the oil pressure from the mechatronic first? Many thanks for your reply.

Great video!!! Now I love my good old fully mechanic maual gearstick even more! :)

Great video, very interesting. No surprise VW had so many "hidden" fasteners...LOL

Excelente Video, que falla da el selenoide atorado? Lo que pasa que yo tengo un audi A1 2013 ya casi 2 meses en el taller y dicen que es la mecatronica, dice en el tablero que ponga la palanca en P o N, no detecta los cambios. me podran ayudar?? Gracias

Hi i would like to know how to re assemble the dsg box... Most important is the finish i.e the front cover joint?

Do you suggest that gearbox oil should be changer every 60k miles?

Les quedó chingon el vídeo!

OMG! How many screws does it take to change a solenoid! Hahaha. Great video!

excellent video...tengo un vw jetta 2019 r line 1.4 la trasmicion de este carro tendra la misma mecatronica... Gracias

Hola una consulta para dar sevicio de la mecatronica a esta caja es necesario deamontar toda la caja de el auto?

Hi man, it's very important remove clutch cilinders before remove valves body, in your video it isn't, but thank you very very much, video helped me! By the way good song.

شكرا على إفاداتكم

I find it very interesting how different these are to the DQ500

Low pressure in the mechatronic is given by the pump or by the solenoids? great video, best one on youtube for disassembly, but the music is kinda annoying.

Please how can i assemble the VW Golf MK6 DSG 7 speed mechatronics?

Please i want to know how car ecu know that clutch plates are finished and what sensor responsible for that I have clutch faults but car smoth and no issues

Amigo gracias por kompartir donde consigo herramientas para reparar y libros y d la tarjeta electrónica d la mecatrónica d esa trasmisión gracias saludos desde MTY nuevo leon

muchas gracias por el aporte muchachos fue de mucha ayuda y efectivamente la caja funciono, pero tengo una de las mismas transmisiones que no respondió y el escaner dice que tiene un problema el selector de tercera marcha aunque esa también pasan solo las marchas pares. me gustaria saber si los selectores de posiciones se pueden reemplazar o hay que sustituir la mecatrónica completa muchas gracias por todo

hi actualy what is a problem in car so u remove gear box and change solenoid?

hi plz help me i change seal green oil come out i dont now how to put bk thanks can u tell me whch oil go in?plz

what should 'gear train half 1 valve' pressure values be in normal operation?

Hello, I have a vw passat cc with 7 speed dsg transmission, I would like to change the transmission oil as maintenance. Could you tell me how many liters it takes? and if you know which is the original oil that I have to apply. regards

Good information. What will happen if that solenoid. Fail??!

Can someone explain what's the purpose of the two little pistons with boot that are removed during the disassembly? They do not seem to operate the forks of the gears, do they?

the vw 2.0 tdi and the combination with dsg was specialy disignet for mechanics who loves mysterious failures.

subed-thx for doing this vid :) cheers from Egypt

So, anyone know where to buy solenoid for replacement?

thanks from Russian`s user dsg7! ) Can I pour the liquid through a breather on mechatronic (on car)?

Tengo un leon FR 2013 DSG con stage 1 APR. ya le toca su servicio de los 60,000 a la transmision (triago 67,000) pero me empezo como a patinar la transmision o el clutch a la hora de que le doy poder..... crees que sea problema de la mecatronica o del clutch? o simplemente sea cambiarle el aceite? Saludos y muchas gracias!

Is it required to change hydrolic oil in dsg 7 speed mechatronics?

Excellent Video!!! que bueno que hay mucho ingenio mexicano, y aprovecho a preguntarles, esta caja trae 2 tipos de aceites, el de la mecatronica es estilo el g00400 de direccion?

Hello. Nice video. Where do you buy solenoid for replacing ?

very very nice work. bravo.complimenti

와우.. 내차도 솔레노이드밸브바디 갈아버리고싶네요~ DSG 7.. GOLF MK6 1.4 TSI

Can't you activate the solenoids without dismantling using the diagnostic kit ? You could listen to each one the same as in the video..

I just replaced mine with new. How much is a used one worth as a core?

How can I test the hydraulic pump ?? Please help

Good job my friend

OMG great work guys and thanks a lot for such work keep going on can you have other vedio regarding control unit of dsg

Well done! I bet you guys are ready to overhaul the Space Shuttle with a screwdriver and some duct tape. My kind of heroes! :-)

Very nice some one knows what they're doing

That solenoid should replace both 4 pcs on that side?

what are the symptoms of a bad solenoid?

oil for mecatronic ?

I'm going to do the same job now thank you for the video very much I'm going to have a nightmare best video on KZfaq by the way I hated the music you should play chillout music not classic but thanks for the video:-)

this video was very helpful, where can i find parts like the solenoid for this same model vehicle and how would i go about fixing a problem like oil coming out of the breather line.

Llegó un carro Ibiza al taller tirando aceite ese citronic y también cuando entra el cambio vibra mucho me estoy interesando en estas transmisiones porque creo que ya hay muchas Te agradecería si me mandas un video porque tira aceite la transmisión por la respiración gracias

primero felicitarlos por el vídeo y segundo mi consulta es la siguiente tengo un problema con unos vw que tienen la misma caja pero solo pasan las marchas pares 2-4-6 y las impares no pasa ninguna ya le hice un ajuste básico a las válvulas con el software de la marca y también cambie en conjunto de embragues pero el problema persiste, alguna idea de que podria ser muchas gracias saludos desde Chile

Trying to remove the mechatronic unit, gear 6 is stuck on, when trying to move the gear selector fork for gear 6 manually as it will not move, very little play, service manual states this needs to be done otherwise it will get stuck on the top left, which is happening. This is preventing the mechatronic unit from coming out, anyone have any tips please?

Good Job and is very helpful. Please I need to know how to test other parts like electric motor and transmission control unit.

awesome video!! can you say when replacing this unit 0AM, does it requires a coding or reprogramming?? i am replacing a faulty one since no communiction with tcm, i use vcds, any advise will appreciate!

Excelente video!! Si mi coche marca falla en la bomba hidraulica, es la caja o la tarjeta? Las venden ustedes?

Yeah its sad that you can't get the solinoids separate from the dealership you have to get a whole mech unit

Bhai plz batao...shud I buy ameo dsg or not.

Good video of undoing screws. Power screwdriver is a useful tool, you should invest in one. Makes this job MUCH faster. For those who think the DSG mechatronics is too complex, you should look at some videos for advanced "traditional" automatic boxes - they are all as bad. But nowhere near as shocking as the Ford Dual Clutch effort - the worst piece of engineering of late. Especially since there were plenty of designs Ford could have embraced.

How much Oil is inside? Did you cnow what kind of Oil?

Great video!!!My MK6 1.4 122HP DSG have a problem with code 006300-FunctionRestriction due to insufficient pressure built-up!The gears is not changing...

Hard to know which solenoids are usually on or off

Hi RPM, What are the torque settings please ?

good video, can you tell me if it would be possible to make accumulator repair without removing the whole megatronic unit? could I just remove the black cover and replace while fixed to the car?

Que tal amigos, muy buen video. Soy de Argentina y quisiera consultarles en donde puedo conseguir una mecatronica para un Audi A4 del año 2010, S-tronic de 7 velocidades. Tengo problemas con mi caja y no tengo concesionario oficial audi cerca, ni tampoco el auto esta mas en garantia asi que debo arreglarme con algun taller local. Muchas gracias

alguien ha tenido problemas con la cremallera ya que es flotante y pienso qué podría ser la causa del ruido

Hola buena tarde donde puedo aprender a reparar yo vivo en la cd de México

Good job, Can you tell me where is a sphere inside of this valve body?

Hi, I have one question I drain out oil to check solonoid valve and are OK I didnt drain out condensator from the mehatronic I get arount 1 liter of oil. Can you tel, me please can I use oil G 004 000 and can you please tell me the procedure to refill the mehatronic with oil. Thank you very much !!!!

I font advocate the use of mold grips either.

Hello, awesome video, i have a 2009 golf vi tsi 1.4 twincharged DSG7 , 90,000km , i am getting a slight juddering,shakes, in the lower gears D1 D2 D3 also funny rattles when shifting, maybe im paranoid but can u give me some advise please, can it be fluid, solenoids etc...??

anybody have the torque specs for this?

electric hydraulic pump.. so it is made to fail ? Does it have brushes?

And how to replace solenoids?

Great video! I have an audi with a 7 speed stronic that shakes on 1st and 2nd gears when accelerating from stand still, what could be the problem? dealer said it needs a clutch set? what do you think? Thanks

De que carro era y cual falla presentaba en el vehiculo?. Buen video 😎

Subscribed. You guys are fantastic well done. Where can you buy the solenoids from? Cheers from Australia.

Hi Hello I have a golf 4 tdi automatic gearbox tiptronic Please let me know how much oil is needed to put in the automatic gearbox.

gracias por el video! Son Mexicanos?

Very interesting wow

Thank a lot bro

machalallah allah yrhamak yah rab

The oil pump in this gearbox is gear type pump and it has a brushless dc motor.

BRAVO RPM! Potresti spiegare una fiat 500L / Alfa 4C cambio automatico manutenzione manutenzione e intervalli e video di sostituzione doppia frizione su quella trasmissione.

Can I test the solenoids without pulling the mech out? Maybe I could test them from the harness?? Thanks

Better than humble mechanic

Hy if you knew what is the problem of my dsg 7 speed gearbox this is the vcds error code "006300 - Function Restriction due to Insufficient Pressure Build-Up P189C" thanx
