B8.5 DSG issue?

[chaos2984]

So since my car has a recall for a ECU update I need to get it in for a few issues as well. Its a 14 with 14K miles on it and every so often in Dynamic mode when i hammer on it and in M mode it will upshift early by itself and not to redline like it should. Seems to be mainly a 1-2 or 2-3 early upshift. Has anyone else had this issue with theirs? Only mods are exhaust and intake.

Very common for B8/8.5.

Dealer might be able to adjust software a bit. Getting a TCU tune usually gets rid of it.

Have them update the DSG to the latest software when they flash the ECU as well and see what you get after that.

Thanks guys. I was planning to get an engine and tcu tune next summer.

Latest. I had to go to the dealer and re produce it for them. I found that its going from 1-3rd and shifting at around 56-5800 rpm. a little early from redline. I showed the tech and they will see what they will have to do.

My 14 does that. It annoys me but the dealership says "its fine."

Mine said there is some TSB's for the trans but they wanted to see what its doing on a test drive with me. So I did that today and showed him. So we will see what happens.
