DSG Shudder

Hi,

I have a 2013 1.4tsi with a 7 speed DSG 44k miles.

In 1st gear either stopped or rolling I get shudder. Its especially worse going up hill. The shudder gets even more worse when the engine is warm.

I was reading on here that clutch packs are usually the problem.

The mechatronix was recently replaced. The spark plugs need changing, i'm on the original set.

The gearbox has not had an oil change.

Not sure where to go from here. Do you think a gearbox oil change/service would help?

To be honest I just want to get it working well enough to sell it privately.

Any advice would be helpful

Thanks

Why was the mechatronix changed?

I'd do a DSG service, followed by an adaptation. Drive normally for for a week and reevaluate.

It blew on me whilst driving and was leaking oil prior.

I will try the DSG service like you say.

Thanks
