Good grief, that seems over complicated but that's the way it is. Good video Tom. It explained a lot.

To me having to go through so many steps to add transmission fluid is ridiculous engineering! Nice job with the vid series Tom.

DESPITE THE FACT I HAVE DONE ONE SO MANY STILL ENJOYED WATCHING U DO IT.......UR MECHATRINICS FAIIL AS WELL??HA HA HA............WELL DONE..

THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEOS AND PLEASE KEEP UP THE DETAILED INDEPTH COVERAGE AND THANKS AGAIN .

Now you need special service tools, a 10000 dollar scantool, and a subscription to OEM programming service. Anybody miss the old days of a funnel, dipstick, and couple quarts of oil yet?

excelente video Tom

When filling the dsg box up put an airline on the vent tube gently put air in it with a blow gun with the valve open and you will fill the box up soo quickly :)

Nice work, looks like an expensive repair.

Nice diagnosis & repair Tom!

Iam India very useful in ur video my garage

Mi volkswagen le cambie los selectores de la trasmision porque estaban los plasticos rotos y ahora arme todo correctamente , encendi mi auto parpadea la lus de parking y me marca U0101 que podria ser ?

Pretty cool. Fill procedure is kinda the same on some Mercedes. Thanks!

Nice job. Keep putting out the videos!

Does the front end have to go into service position or do you just remove the radiator fans & tilt the engine / transmission to remove the mechatronics?

im going through this exact problem ive checked everything youve checked before hand to the T and called it as a bad mecha unit, only difference is that now with the new one installed i hooked up odis and STILL have no coms with the TCU and thing you can add to that?

nice video tom , keep them coming they very good , by the way what kind of safety glasses are the one you have , thanks

Job well done !!

I wonder how similar the mechatronics unit is to General Motors TEHCM. When I was a transmission guy I replaced a couple of those that intermittently failed. Bad idea putting a module in such a hot nasty environment.

Could you find any visual failures with the old mech? I have a 2012cc in the shop now with a passive sporadic U0101. The gearbox only acts up after a long drive. Key cycle and shifts normal again. I, as well as VW, and another independent have all done testing and have condemned the mech as the failure. The customer still needs more proof

hello hopefully you can help me out with what's going on with my 2006 Passat 2.0t.. I live on the beach and didn't get my car moved to a high enough level to keep Irma from getting about 2 ft of water in my car it barley got the floor board wet . I moved it right when are dune broke so it was not salt water at the time the water started rising. so 3 days after Irma put 6 ft of water in my house and lost everything once again 😞😞😞 I thought that at least I saved my car. well it drove fine for 3 days besides the battery stated going dead real fast. . I drive it on the 4th day got 2 Mike's down the road and it died. it will turn over fine but will not fire. I took it to an auto shop that I was not familiar with and thet told me it was the ECM and it would be 2.900 to fix I ask him to explain to me which ECM that's when he started living me some b)s I guess he thought since I'm a young woman that I didn't know shit about cars. needless to say I got a second opinion this guy says it was something with the wires he thought and he would be able to fix it for about $500. but when I went to his shop I wasn't for sure if I Was going get my car back it was more like a chop shop. I don't know what to do and I only have one he Left on my AAA I want to get one more options and I have been waiting all ur videos trying to fix it myself but have had o luck

How much did this repair cost the customer?

Hey man I see you working on a lot of Volkswagen are you working for the dealership

wonder how long before it's back from worn/clutch/tc slippage :)

I'm a student at a technical school in FL. We scanned a 2013 CC 2.0 MPI. It was in an accident and was rebuilt. It's got a ton of intermittent no communication codes across different modules. Is there a particular module that I should attack first? Thanks!!! I'm a big fan of your channel btw. Great work!!!

Nice

Hi tom do all the auto transmissions on the vag group have the level checked when the engine is running ?and are they all at 35degress c ? I remember the s class Mercedes I had although not in the vag groom but still German was about 80degs from memory or maybe I'm mistaken thanks Chris

What is the name of the diagnostic tool you are using Tommy

Hello ,thanks for videos Can you help me My code is P1604 startability malfunction U0101 lost communication with transfer case control module toyota avalon 2015 All good but check engine come after about 10 minutes from start I replied coolnt temperature sensor And thermostat but check engine stills come

I dont understand you had changed the tcm in gearbox ????????????

I mean does such a design for filling the tranny do anything better than say how a Honda or most other cars do it? I'm genuinely curious. Just seems overly done, but then again I'm not an engineer.

Awesome how much to buy the vw scanner

Would you be able to give me an idea of the cost to get it repair (approx)? I am trying to sell my VW CC 2010 with this issues. do you recommend fix and sell it or sell it as it is? I appreciate your suggestion

you should of showed installation......you blew this video and I've rebuilt Jetta valve bodies in my driveway Jan in NY this yr.....

its not need to reprogram ?????

It's the dumbest way to fill a gearbox, VW have turned into a pile of crap design wise.
