DSG B116229 & microswitch replacement

Hi guys,

Recently known error message of DSG started to pop up on my 2016 MK7 GTD.

I really don't want to spend 700€+ on the new gear selector so I would like to replace faulty microswitch. (Or is there some software workaround how to disable checking?)

Is there any way how to find out what type of microswitch I have to order?
I found only pictures of US gear selectors disassembled so I would like to be 100% sure that I have correct microswitch before tearing whole gear selector apart. I have this one - 5Q1713023AB.

It's annoying having error message on every startup on car under 90k kms. My previous Skoda Superb with over 500k kms had 0 of them. 😏:D

Thank you

There’s a recall for that.
