π Volkswagen Passat B7 1.8 TSI β Major Repair Case
The car came in with gear shifting issues and coolant-related problems. After a full diagnosis, we identified two main causes that required immediate attention.
First, the Mechatronic unit was faulty, which affected gear engagement and shifting smoothness. This is a critical component of the DSG system β once it starts to fail, symptoms like jerking, delayed shifts, or warning lights may appear. We replaced the Mechatronic unit to restore proper transmission control and smooth driving performance. βοΈπͺ
Secondly, the radiator was found to be compromised, leading to coolant loss and potential overheating risks. To ensure the engine stays at the correct operating temperature, the radiator was replaced and the cooling system was thoroughly checked and pressure-tested. π§βοΈ
After repairs, the Passat is now shifting smoothly, running at stable temperature, and ready for daily driving again. πβ¨
