Known DSG Fault Library

Search the fault code exactly as your scanner shows it.

ODIS, VCDS, Autel, Launch, Topdon and generic tools often describe the same transmission fault differently. This library connects the code, VAG number and real-world symptom to the route we actually recommend: fixed-price repair, free test first, or vehicle/gearbox diagnosis.

Important: this library is an intake guide, not a substitute for vehicle diagnosis. Codes can be consequences of low voltage, wiring, mechanical gearbox faults, incorrect oil level, clutch wear or previous repair work. Fixed-price pages only apply when the controller and fault family match the published service.
Technical review

Written around faults we actually want to diagnose and repair.

Technical service content on this page is reviewed by Robert Kovac, Kovac Services Ltd. Where a fault code can point to more than one cause, we say so rather than turning every scanner code into a fixed-price promise.
