Ter info;
Some of the most common symptoms of a Mechatronic Failure are :
- Flashing PRNDS in the Dash and the gearbox will switch to neutral.
- Hard engaging of the 1st gear (slams into the first gear) from a stand still point. This can sometimes also be caused by a decallibration of the clutches so you might be able to "save the day" by performing a recalibration with a VCDS cable. *
-
Hard downshifting from 3 to 2 and 2 to 1st gear followed by some loud "clunk" noises. *
- Shaking / juddering feeling while in 2nd gear and the car pulls up. *
- Jerking between gears *
* This problems can be caused by worn valves. Changing the affected valve might solve your problem.
- Loss of power between 1300-2000 RPM. Car feels like dead
