A dual-clutch DSG or S tronic gearbox needs a mechanic who knows it. We service, diagnose and repair Volkswagen Group transmissions at our Seaford workshop, a short drive from Frankston and Patterson Lakes.
Transmission problems we fix
- Jerky, shuddering or slipping take-off from a standstill
- Harsh, delayed or missed gear changes
- A flashing gear indicator or a gearbox warning on the dash
- Limp mode, or the car refusing to select drive or reverse
- Noise or vibration from the gearbox
DSG and S tronic servicing
Wet-clutch DSG gearboxes need an oil and filter change at set intervals, often around every 60,000 km. We drain and refill with oil that meets VW's specification, replace the filter, check for fault codes and run the clutch adaptation where needed. Read our DSG service guide.
Mechatronic unit repair
Many DSG faults come from the mechatronic unit, the gearbox's built-in control unit. We diagnose it properly and repair the mechatronic unit where possible, instead of replacing the whole gearbox. More about mechatronic repair.
Automatic transmission servicing
We also service conventional automatic transmissions, such as those in the Touareg, Amarok and larger Audis, including fluid and filter changes and fault diagnosis.
Gearboxes we work on
6-speed DQ250 and 7-speed DQ200, DQ381 and DQ500 DSGs, Audi S tronic, and the automatic transmissions used across Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda and Cupra.
