Hi Guys,
This isn't a T6 problem, but there may be some similarities between the T6 DSG operation and my wife's 2018 golf diesel DSG. I just wonder if anyone has experienced this.
We have a 1.6 diesel golf DSG 2018 that we have had a year. We noticed the problem first when in cornwall when going down some steep hills. We could for example approach the hill in 3rd gear and as we went down and the speed and revs increased, the gearbox would sometimes not change up. We could be reving to 4k revs and rising before I would change it to manual and notch it up. I tried accelerating, but nothing would make it change up by itself. Get to the bottom of the hill and back to auto and its fine. The same hill later and it would change up automatically as expected. On the flat there is no problem.
Where we live in Lincolnshire there aren't so many hills so its not such a problem. I have had it in to the dealers and it wouldn't go wrong for them. I since videoed it and showed them when it went in for service. They carried out a clutch adaption but its still the same.
They say they haven't seen this before and are asking VW technical for advice.
I have done some searching on various forums but can't find info on how it works or anyone who has had this type of problem. As someone who likes to know how things work its bugging me not knowing the logic behind its operation.
