At Mechalex, we specialise in Volkswagen and Audi gearbox repairs, servicing, and replacements. Whether you're experiencing gearbox issues or simply want to maintain peak performance, our expert technicians provide tailored solutions to keep your transmission running smoothly.
The Direct-Shift Gearbox (DSG or Direktschaltgetrieb in German!) is a sophisticated dual-clutch system that offers seamless gear changes and enhanced driving performance.
In simple terms, a DSG automates two separate "manual" gearboxes (and clutches) contained within one housing and working as one unit. It was designed by BorgWarner and is licensed to the Volkswagen Group.
Like any advanced system, it requires regular maintenance to prevent costly repairs. Check our guide here for when you should service your gearbox.
