Hi guys bought a 17 plate a few months ago ,it has a 7 speed dsg box , starts fine with engine management light on (awaiting diagnostic ) goes into gear fine , starts to pull away and then it as if it comes out of gear and over revs as if it’s come out of gear and the coil light comes on . Any ideas guys
 
Wait for your diagnostics but sounds to me like a solenoid in the mechatronics. (Gearbox ECU)
What’s the millage? Has the servicing been kept up to date on the gearbox? Do you get a number flashing in the centre of the dash? Usually if it’s a gearbox error the gear selected flashes up
 
Hi Phil, the mileage is 96000 , I know it has a full vw service on the engine but no sure on the gear box , had it on a drooled up today with these codes/errors .

Then after they were cleared, engine management light went off , tried to drive it and it only got 10 years in first and threw up these and they are the only 2 codes found .

Looks like the mechatronics to me. Do some googling and see what comes up. You will not be the first to have that fault
 
Thanks Phil , just had the service book and it comes with a full vw service but the dsg has never been serviced according to the service book
 
Checked the fuses in the engine bay all work apart from 2 x 30 amp (green ) fuses look fine but no current going through them at all
