- If your gears are a bit clunky or not as smooth as they used to be try this handy tip to re set the box back to normal. #car #audi #vw
I have done this many times.The feeling i have is that in one reset the gear box response faster and immidate , and the other is slower if you can say that......
After the re set, it should shift quicker and smoother, up and down. These gearboxes learn how you drive to, so if you suddenly start driving more aggressively, it will be a bit slow till it learns.
@@thestanleysadventures8229 can I do this on a cold motor or do I need to warm up car first?
Warm works better mate
I dont hink it learns the way you drive.Actually there are 2 set up for this.A slower one(smoother maybe), and a faster one(.I prefer the 2nd.
@MrDim09
All the more modern vw/audi group dsg style gearboxes have a learning ECU in them, if you spend most of you time pootling around it will shift up through the gears much sooner and won't hold on to revs as much, the exact opposite will happen if you drive hard and rev more frequently, it will hold on to revs more and not shift so early in that car, pretty clever really lol

We bought used .
Clunky downshift from 5 to 4
Also other gears will this work for us ??
Do this first ( make sure it's up to working temp first) if it doesn't make a difference, then you've poss got a dual mass flywheel dying, what's the mileage?
@@thestanleysadventures8229 206 000 km
@@thestanleysadventures8229 this is an 6 speed automatic
Correct me is that on for standard transmissions with cluches
@Jay-rk6uj
The re set is for DSGs or autos, but the dual mass flywheel is on both
@@thestanleysadventures8229
Ok never knew that everything I've seen was a manual ..
I will try the reset
Can you please write out the exact procedure...
Also getting alot of people saying valve body replacement quite a expensive job here in Canada 2000 dollars to drop the tranny pan new valve body and gasket plus fluid
Hi mate I’m having a issue where my car sometimes bang/jumps into gear on a downshift, also does sometimes jolts upon upshifting (specially when the engine is cold) the ecu reset fixed this, but the downshift still the same… do you have any idea what it could be? Much appreciated! 2017 a4 tdi
Unfortunately, it could be your dual mass flywheel dying. A lot of people think being an auto they don't have them, but unfortunately, they do, it tends to be worse on a cold engine because the motor is running at a higher idle speed and isn't running so smooth as when hot, what mileage is your car on?
@@thestanleysadventures8229 the mileage is just under 60k, I haven’t taken it for a diagnosis yet as I’m dreading the hefty repair bill, but I was thinking a gearbox service might do the trick. The car has only part service history so I have no clue when the last gearbox service was, or if it’s even had one…. Not sure what to do now 👎, dual mass flywheel repair/replacement sounds like a hefty job also
@WaveyNW
Ok, so at 60k, you should be OK mate, the death zone, as I call it, is 100/130k, ish, I recommend a oil service every 40k so if it's not had one it's in desperate need of one, whoever does you work make sure the filters are changed to not just the oil, I would ask to see a sample of it to ( for your own peace of mind more than anything) to see how dirty it is, once done do another re set after 100 miles or so and see how it's doing, that would be my recommendation first mate. Yes, the dual mass is a hefty price for sure, but if you did have to you'd only do it once, oh and don't comment on it to the garage, just ask for a fluids and filter job, to many garages will say that's the prob just to sting you outve more money 👍🏻
@@thestanleysadventures8229 Cheers mate appreciate your advice 👍 I will be definitely servicing it asap, will let you know it goes! Just another question out of curiosity is there any other symptoms that a bad DMF may show (noises etc etc). Thanks again mate
@WaveyNW
Yes there are, you'll get a light rumble at the gearbox end of the motor, which will become a rattle as the flywheel breaks up over time, poor starting/slow starting, due to bits of flywheel getting in the starter motor ( magnets) and when sat still, as you drive away you can almost feel a slight donk/thud, as the flywheel takes up the slack before engaging the engine and drive line together, my pleasure mate hope it helps, any other info on anything mechanical I'm here for you 👍🏻💪🏻 I'd love to know the outcome to thanx mate.
Do I need to warm up the car first?
It's best to get it to operating temp first yes mate, sorry forgot to mention that in the video
Hello can you help me out on this one if you can, I own a 2012 VW CC Sport 2.0 4 cylinder with the DSG gears so when I drive it on d/s + the gears show up normally like 1,2,3 etc but when I drive it on ( S ) mode usually it supposed to be like S1,S2,S3 etc but on my it only shows the S what could the issue be ?
Has this happened every time recently or a 1 off? If it used to show S1 S2 S3, ect, and now isn't, could be a software issue ( if you've had a flat battery ect) so may need to be plugged in to re calibrate/ synchronise the gears with the readout, or it's literally just getting old and is having glitches, as long as the shifting is working as it should and it's preforming OK, I wouldn't worry to much, if it is playing up, unfortunately that's a vw specialist to re code the gears to the sensors, hope that helps mate.
@@thestanleysadventures8229 well I had taken the car for a trans rebuild I don’t know if mechanics did everything correctly , before it did used to show the S1,S2,S3 . Etc now it doesn’t but it does shift normal it just kinda bothers me not seeing the S mode display the gears correctly haha
@thebigbosss1000
OK, so if it's had a rebuild, there are electronics in there that need re fitting correctly, when in sport mode it should up shift as late as poss and down shift to keep you on boost at all times, if its not doing that it's not actually in sport mode, that could be why it's not registering the gear just the gear selector position
Good day. Could you describe the exact procedure in each point? Somehow I don't understand it. Thank you.
Just answered mate.
I wonder where this comes from. There are absolutly no information from VW themselves about this, and everyone has different ways of doing it. Some say NOT to turn off the ignotion but rather start the car.. Some say that the key should be removed and re-inserted. Some say a minute while others say 20 seconds. Some claim you have to go though all of the selecters after. This is though the first time someone mentioned locking and unlocking the doors? Not sure what this has to do with the transmission.
Plasebo effect?
Iv been working on vw/audis for many years, I was told by an Audi trained mechanic how to do it when I serviced my gearbox on my Q5, and straight away I felt the difference even on the shifter ( felt tighter) but since then iv done it to countless customers and friends cars and all have noticed the difference, the locking and unlocking is meant to register the change in the ECU, hope that helps mate 👍🏻
@@thestanleysadventures8229 you never say [in the video] IFor WHEN to remove foot from gas pedal. Please clarify at what point throttle/pedal is released.
Aa far as I'm aware it was to lock the new setting into the ecu, all I know is iv had a few DSG cars and you could tell after doing this on each of them, so it deff works, as for other people's ways, I have no idea.
So is it all a myth?
I gave this a go on my Skoda Superb today as I've had jerky set offs in 1st and reverse when auto handbrake disengages. I wasn't sure if I could hear things adjusting on mine but after the first drive it seems to have resolved my issue.
If my gearbox has a map done to it can I still do this
Yeah, it won't affect your map. Just re set all the bite points of the solanoids for the clutches
@@thestanleysadventures8229 thanks
@waqashussain2310 any other info feel free to get in touch mate 👍🏻
I seem to get a little clunk sound when the car comes to a standstill, when it goes back to D1, I have an Audi 2019 A5, does the sound familiar?
Yes, mate, could just need a re set, or your dual mass flywheel is starting to die, even though its an auto you still have one, try the re set first if it doesn't stop then you know. Any more info feel free to get in touch 👍🏻
Thanks it’s booked in at my local Audi centre tomorrow…
@@ashleymiskin5284 did you try the re set first?
Yes and it kind of feels bit better. The audi technician said the clutch had slipped, all being well work will be done tomorrow, I hope warranty covers this, only had the car 3 months…
@ashleymiskin5284 That's a great catch by you then mate well done 👌🏻 iv got a highly tuned Audi SQ5 so when I started getting the same issue as you, I had an uprated clutch pack put in and an uprated dual mass flywheel, the difference is huge now, keep me posted on what happens 👍🏻
is this real?
Of course, works on all dual clutch vag group cars
Are YOU real?
1min or 4min
1min
@@thestanleysadventures8229 it's work for golf7 GTD dsg6 dq250🙂 thanks
@maya19maya it works for all vw/audi dsg gearboxes, glad it worked 👌🏻
When do u lift off the accelerator?
Mostly ppl doing wrong manip to reset dsg whitout 90degre or drive10minute then reset it there is a reason mostly ppl has bad dsg because of this sample manipulation...
Great I fo thanx 👍🏻
Sorry can you explain. I’m going to do reset but don’t understand what you mean
@@adriansmith8555 before u touch anything just drive 15minute then do reset adapation dsg if u do cold its gonna break something " a bit risky"
@@adriansmith8555
He's saying, take it for a drive to get the gearbox oil to the correct temperature first, then do the re set procedure.
No mention of when to release the accelerator...
Good day. Could you describe the exact procedure in each point? Somehow I don't understand it. Thank you.
First, go for a short drive to get the gearbox oil up to temp, Then, press the throttle down to the floor ( but not the kick down swith right at the bottom of the pedal) turn on the ignition ( wait for 1 minute) then turn off the ignition and release the throttle, lock the car, then unlock, start the car and go for a sensible drive ( no hard accelerating) to let the gearbox re learn it's parameters, job done. Hope that helps. 👍🏻

Děkuju. Zkusím to. takže nemačkejte tlačítko Kick-Down. Jiné příručky říkají, že Kick-Down ano.
