- Turned in my 2010 Jetta TDI Cup Edition to VW, DSG, Nav, Sunroof / Replaced with a 2015 Passat TDI SEL Premium
Cold Start, Shift from Park to Reverse or Drive, DSG "Slams" into Gear & Stalls Engin
Per thread title, I have a 2015 VW Passat TDI SEL Premium w/DSG. Bought it in early November w/11k miles on it. Was a Texas vehicle, now in Wisconsin. Put about 2,000 miles on it since purchase to now. First month of ownership, no problems. Second month of ownership, a couple of times on first start in the morning, parked in garage, car starts and runs fine, put foot on brake, shift into Reverse, let foot off brake, and before I get to the accelerator pedal, car starts nudging back but then slams into gear, jerks back and stalls engine. Third month of ownership, this situation happens about 50% of the time, and does it now when leaving work at end of day, same scenario except when putting the shifter into Drive. Yesterday, did this situation with slamming and stalling the engine 3 consecutive times until the 4th time got through it. Always, after getting the car moving with engine running, cannot duplicate it immediately after car gets moving, or after car has warmed up and been driven any distance. Car still has 5 months of bumper-to-bumper warranty.
Is this a somewhat common issue with DSG's/TDI's?
