Smart solution – VAICO mechatronic unit 6-speed DSG® transmission (02E, DQ250)
The 6-speed DSG® transmission (02E, DQ250) from VW is an electronically controlled dual-clutch transmission and is considered one of the most significant technical innovations of recent years. It combines the comfort of an automatic transmission with the efficiency and dynamics of a manual gearbox. It is therefore not surprising that more than 50% of the Group's newly registered vehicles are now delivered with dual clutch transmissions.
In addition to the transmission maintenance prescribed by the vehicle manufacturer, including oil and filter changes every 5 years or after 60,000 km, there are also some weak points that often force vehicles with this transmission into the workshop.
One of these problems is leaks and oil loss at the lower part of the transmission oil pan, which can be caused by a defective rubber seal, but also by corrosion on the oil pan itself. In some cases, the oil pan can even rust through.

Another problem is defective mechatronic units, which can lead to massive shifting problems and even total failure of the transmission, making towing the vehicle to the workshop unavoidable. In this case, the vehicle manufacturer only offers to replace the complete mechatronic unit, resulting in considerable costs for the vehicle owner. However, it is often sufficient to replace the control board.
