Need For Speed Carbon Volkswagen Golf R32
Bernd Manison
Hey there, quick question for someone. This has been an issue for awhile but usually at lower speeds my vw golf shifts super weird. Sitting in traffic is brutal as it cant choose first or second gear. Its a 7 speed dsg auto, and I know they usually have issues. I also notice a deep I guess grumble coming from my engine going up hills, kinda sounds like your gonna stall in a manual. Could it be carbon buildup and my engine struggling?
Couple of things.
If you have not had your transmission fluid changed (30-50,000 mile intervals) have it done with VW spec. fluid.
Check with dealership for any possible updates for your car.
Struggling going uphill might be transmission related, is it downshifting appropriately? What does your tachometer read?
Sorry for the late reply, I got 61k miles. I was planning on doing the fluid in the next couple of weeks. The shifting has been kind of weird for awhile now, I know these dsg transmissions like to be wonky.
