- DSG (DQ381 / DQ500) Sensor Failure(Serious)
Wet-clutch DSG units in the Kodiaq (DQ381 and the heavy-duty DQ500) can suffer from internal sensor failures (P1735/P1736 or G182/G195), leading to emergency mode.
- NOx Sensor / AdBlue Faults(Moderate)
Diesel emissions hardware can trigger warning lights and restart countdowns on otherwise healthy-feeling cars.
