    DSG issues - Bi-Turbo. Not selecting gears

    Hi all, I've done a forum Search, but couldn't find what I was looking for. So my DSG on my 2017, 160k miles 204 PS Bi-Turbo is having 'issues'. Symptoms including not selecting gear at all, or 'dumping the clutch' in a *very* nasty way at a random point on the revs. Typically happens either...

    180PS burning through oil

    Hi, I have now done 10000 miles in my new van (180) I've now put in a total of 4 litres of oil!!! My dealer says it's normal to use 1 litre per 1000 miles!!! (Oil ain't cheap anymore!) Is this right? I also have a very annoying vibration that I think is coming from the small box compartment on...

    Lumpy Low Revs, Cause And Cure?

    LWB EU5 180 On the way to work the last couple of days I have noticed that in slow traffic at low revs there is a rumble and vibration at small throttle openings. In typical fashion I decided to warm it up and give it some red line beans, clean things out a bit. Now runs much better without...

    Help For A Caravelle First-timer

    Hi, I'm posting hoping to get some advice on Caravelles. It looks like we definitely want a DSG box, but other choices are up in the air. I've read that the biturbo engines get broken by EGR valve failures, is this the common feeling? I've also read that retrofitting options is difficult and...

I've ordered the oil & filter but I'm not sure that I like the idea of removing the oil filter and covering the engine bay with oil once...

I actually drove his 180 on the way to test drive a 204- WOW what a difference between my 180 and his, you'd swear it's a different engine. The numbers might be the same but the...
