VW Jetta Help 06 Jetta TDI flashing problem !

Hi, I have an 06 Jetta TDI and sometimes when you put it on Park and N, it jerks and pulls forward rapidly for about 3 times and flashing occurs . Watch the video. It starts to jerk and flash when i put it on park and then the jerk stops but it still continues to flash no matter if i change it to P, R, N, D, S....Its until when I turn the car off completely and turn it back on its fine but sometimes this flashing and jerkin occurs I dont know what to do. I've been to several mechanics and they hooked the car up to scanner computers to try to find the problem and it didnt show that anything was wrong...One guy told me i need to change the transmission oil but i dont know. The car has 67 000 km almost. Any tech help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks

There was a recall for this transmission

[MrDubbz09]

I called my VW dealer today and asked him about any recalls for the DSG transmission and he said that there is only a recall for a temperature sensor on the transmission. But my mechanic told me there was a recall for the double clutch in the DSG transmission. So I dont know...Could you tell me abit more about the recall?

@MrDubbz09 look on the interet for "VW vortex forum" in the DSG transmission section you can find the info about the recall.. (only in america for now)

actually the estimated nuber of complaint of DSG malfunctioning worldwide it's 250.000 and growing..

that's how bad and unreliable this tranny is.... trade it before you run out of warranty.. a mechatronic (tranny ecu) replacement is more than 1500 bucks (and most of the times don't even solve the problem at all)

This problem is not related to the DSG. they only recall that vw has on the DSG transmissions is called 37E6 witch is for Transmission mechotronic unit. when you get that flashy light on your cluster i would say most probably You have a bad shifter postion sensor/ cable.

It's probably flashing PRNDS for "Please Remember Never Drive Shit"

Jetta's were made in Mexico in the past... I'm pretty sure they might still be. I had a 2000 Jetta and it was at the dealer more than it was driven by me. Windows... Starter... Shifter stuck on Park... Should get a Japanese car better. They last longer and have fewer problems. I now drive an 2010 Audi S4 (B8) and haven't had problems. However, I still acknowledge that Japs make the better cars. Hope you can get VW to fix it. :(

Well your not alone! I love my car, but I might have to take old yeller out back and .... you know how that ends..

European cars and VW is a total piece of junk. They should be destroyed and should not exist in the first place.
