Contact Sommer Car Care today for bespoke DSG gearbox repairs.

Decoding DSG Transmissions

In vehicles from the Volkswagen/Audi/Porsche/Skoda (VAG) group, mechatronic transmission reigns supreme. DSG stands for Direct Shift Gearbox, and it’s a marvel of engineering. This electronically controlled, dual-clutch automatic gearbox boasts the prowess to seamlessly manage both clutch operation and gear shifting. The secret sauce behind its versatility? The mechatronic unit. The mechatronic unit is the brain behind the DSG transmission, orchestrating the intricate dance of gear changes and clutch engagement. This electronic wizardry allows your vehicle to gracefully transition between fully automatic and semi-manual gear selection modes. However, when things go awry, you might experience symptoms like jerkiness during the start-up, trouble selecting gears or even a complete loss of drive. These issues often point to a mechatronic unit in distress.

Traditional Troubleshooting vs. Sommer's Solution

In the world of vehicle servicing, conventional wisdom often suggests replacing the entire mechatronic unit when trouble arises. But here’s the catch: this solution can set you back anywhere from $5,000 to a staggering $10,000 or more, depending on your vehicle’s make and model. That’s where we come in. At Sommer Car Care, we’ve invested considerable time and effort in understanding the intricate components within the mechatronic unit. Our commitment to innovation has led us to develop a groundbreaking solution: rebuilding mechatronic units. Instead of opting for a costly full-unit replacement, we target and replace the specific internal components that are causing the issues. Once we’ve worked our magic, we meticulously re-program and calibrate the unit to its intended functionality.

Benefits Beyond the Budget

By choosing our services for DSG transmission in Brisbane, you stand to gain in more ways than one. Not only do you save a substantial amount of money compared to full-unit replacement, but you also contribute to waste reduction by replacing only the faulty components. It’s a win-win scenario that not only eases the burden on your wallet but also lessens your environmental footprint.

At Sommer Car Care, we’re not just in the business of fixing vehicles; we’re in the business of finding innovative, cost-effective solutions that put you, the customer, at the forefront. Contact us online today to learn more about our DSG service.
