DSG reliability

[GreenMan]

I've recently read a number of concerning posts on various other sites (e.g. UK Audi TT OC, TDIClub and I think Briskoda) about DSG gearbox failures.... has anyone on here suffered any problems with theirs?

I'm keen to get a car with the system as it ticks the compromise box between my yearning for the control of a manual and my wife's preference for automatics...

Thanks, Catso it sounds like your problems were similar to those I've read about elsewhere. Fine if it's just a software thing (like the "reboot" you suggest), but have heard of it being traced to faulty mechatronic modules in the gearbox....
