    Cheers, will have VW check this out on mine. I have it booked in to get the DSG looked at soon. Thought it was a mechatronic fauliure but maybe its this.

    Haven't really noticed any weird noises but the 2nd-1st shift is bad.

    The #1 on the tdiclub thread states the fault occurred on a HXU gearbox which is 6 speed DSG.

    yeah but this is not a geabox failure, its a DMF failure.

    Have had my MK VI 103 TDI Golf for about 10 months now... Have already clocked up 49000K's, I started noticing similar symptoms with mine in the earlier stages and have recently started noticing that occasionally the shift down from 2nd to 1st is rough and feels almost like the car is going to stall. I also had the same issue with the Volkswagen dealership at Gosford telling me that it was an issue with the high pressure fuel pump but its completely normal. Think I am going to print these posts off and take them in with me...
