Hi lads
I just got my Leon 2011 2.0 TDi FR serviced last week on time (it has full service history 116k)
I got the oil changed in DSG box and new filter also..

I noticed gearbox slipped a bit when pulling off the other day but road was frosty and I just presumed I'd lost traction for a second, then it happened today too twice once when accelerating and once when pulling off slowly..
This never happened before service of box so just wondering could they have done something wrong, maybe too much or too little oil?

Anyone else experience similar ?

A DSG service was done just before I got car 2 year ago too

Thanks in advance for any help or opinions

It's worth following up with the garage to find out what oil they used.

Do you have the ability to check error codes? The DSG box has speed sensors on both sides of the clutches so it will know if there has been clutch slip and log error codes.

116k seems low mileage for the clutch pack to be excessively worn but you never know...

How's it going
Thanks for your reply.

I have a Launch 429C diagnositic as I sell used cars but there is no errors on the car..
The garage has suggested topping up the oil a bit through the filter if that makes sense ?

Like is there a set amount of oil for the box or has it to be just full?

Any help appreciated..

It has happened once again since first lost kind of juddered when changing gear

Never had any issues before the service
