Marneus 78 Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Afternoon all,I'm sitting here in a hotel room bored & was thinking about a conversation I had with a guy from work who owns an R32 about what I want to do to the Golf over the next couple of years.We we're wondering if the DSG box could be made to run on the 12v engine? I know it would need to be converted to FWD but could the wiring be sorted? Does the DSG box run it's own ECU or is it an integral part of the engine ECU?This is all theoretical at the moment but I've just been trawling ebay & DSG boxes don't seem to be too expensive.... My other idea is to buy a complete 2003/2004 Audi TT 3.2 DSG & swap everything I need over (or get someone to do it as the wiring side frightens me lol) What do you guys think?

mattvr6 133 Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 Stick to manual DSG's r temperamental and extremely costly when they go wrong also can b jerky/hardwork to live with that's my opinion work for a gearbox specialist Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
