Just plug in the VCDS

Stamped on the joint between engine and gearbox - states the workshop manual

DNAA comes with 6 speed gearbox, DNAB with 5 speed gearbox 5 (as well as DNAC - 66 kW variant but probably not imported into the UK)?

we got any other engine codes for the T6.1?

and any tech info on them?

any new SSP`s I've not seen yet?

 

[Dellmassive]

Update:

VW Tech team have been sent pics, and are now booked in to visit the garage on 1st Oct to see whats what.

warranty office should get the report 24hrs later, we should then have an answer / outcome from that point.

New DSG Box -- or -- a DSG glue and sticky plaster????

.

UPDATE:

The VW Tech crew descended upon the garage and Bus.

long story short short the new DSG box has been authorised.

and the garage can proceed with the repair (fitting a new DSG box as a complete unit). - yay !!

now the only problem is the DSG box is on "back order" with no ETA available yet . . . . BOOO !!


.

so well be sticking with the loaner for a while yet.

got a link to 722?

 

[Dellmassive]

so looks like the other loaner is also a DNAB. with a 5SPM

2.0 TDI CR - DNAB - 81kw/110ps


nice engine to be fair. . . but the 5spm is a nightmare,

defiantly needs a 6sp.

cruising at 70 does my head in. . . constantly going to shift up, but there is no more up.

Very interesting thread @Dellmassive , it was fun to read your journey! I'm looking at an ovano as wel but I'm not sure I would go for xl or narrow, because I want to fit a water system. But maybe something like this wil fit next to the outer frame of the xl drawer of the ovano?

Yeh on the DSG.

But once you get used to it it's better..
You can stretch you leg right out.

But agree at first it's annoying.

If you really can't get used to it, try this:-

T6.1 DSG Footrest - solution

The lack of a footrest in the T6.1 is an issue for me as it causes an issue in my left knee to be exacerbated and proven on my 3500 mile trip to/around/back from Europe. I've seen lots of comments on how you adapted after 20 mins or a day etc so this thread isn't for you. I scoured ebay and...
