Recall of 7spd DSG (excludes Mk7)

[Golf7]

There is a similar recall on the 7 speed gearboxes used in some VW cars in Singapore which IIRC are also sourced from the same factories as the Australian vehicles. So the spokesman for VW Australia has shot himself in the foot.

However the recall does not affect the Mk7.

The Singapore forum (VAGSG) has inputs from owners of the Mk7 which claim the 7-speed DSG in the Mk7 feels different from the ones in their older VW rides, particularly the 1st to 2nd gear jerkiness.

I hate how Gehling just refuses to do something, he knows that something's wrong, we know that something's wrong, yet no action is taken. At least the extended warranty is a step in the right direction...

But then again what would be the corrective action for the DSG??? Replacing it and throwing it out completely?
