What are the causes of DSG automatic transmission failures?
1 Answers
DSG automatic transmission failures are caused by: malfunctions in the transmission's mechatronic control unit. In addition to offering the flexibility of a manual transmission and the comfort of an automatic transmission, the DSG provides uninterrupted power output, which is fundamentally different from two automatically controlled clutches. The DSG primarily consists of several major components: two basic 3-shaft 7-speed mechanical gearboxes, an electro-hydraulic clutch mechanism containing two sets of multi-plate clutch discs, and a gearbox ECU. Unlike conventional dual-shaft gearboxes or single input shaft systems, the DSG gearbox not only features dual clutches but also a coaxial dual input shaft system, with the 7 forward gears distributed on the respective driven shafts on both sides.
