Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Water Pump / Thermostat Housing Leak(Moderate)
The standard MQB plastic housing can seep coolant, often before owners notice any puddles.
- DSG (DQ381) Sensor Failure(Serious)
The newer 7-speed wet-clutch DSG (DQ381) can suffer from faulty clutch position sensors (P1735/P1736), which often require a mechatronic rebuild.
- DSG (DQ200) Accumulator Housing Crack(Serious)
On smaller engines with the 7-speed dry-clutch (DQ200), the hydraulic accumulator housing can crack, causing a complete loss of pressure.
