DSG Clutch Replacement - Surrey

[crustyclown777]

My 7 speed dry DSG box is experiencing a bit of slip between the gears.

it's looking like a new clutch is required - based on the fault codes I'm seeing, and the other symptoms listed.

Does anybody have any Indy garage recommendations. I know these gearboxes aren't the simplest and need shimming correctly.

Hoping I can find a balance between cost & quality based on your experiences.

Cheers!

Talk to Tim at the Phirm. If they can't do it themselves he will know somebody that can.

These lot a very well reviewed. But a couple of hours away from you.

The Phirm are not scared of DSG work, and are who I would ask in that part of the world too.

The only "problem" with Milta, is that they'll very likely sell you a full box rebuild (although they're certainly the best people in the UK to do that).

VAS motion near guildford might be worth a call.

My Octavia with the DQ200 box is starting to slip, bit of a noise pulling away in 1st when it’s warm and sometimes 1st to 2nd. Not really changed much in the last year or so(it’s a private hire car) tried a couple of places but they were reluctant to quote!

Nice, thanks for the suggestion. I got in contact and the approximate quote is £1700 for a new clutch!

Another company came back with a very similar figure.

So I guess I need to start planning this in, hopefully the clutch will last until the end of summer.
