Installing and Removing DSG6 Mechatronic Unit Tips and Tricks

Due to popular request I decided to make a short guide on how to remove and install the DSG6 DQ250 Mechatronic unit from and into the gearbox.
For this purpose I used a gearbox that I had in my garage, so it was not installed on the car.

The guide is made in form of a video and can be found on Youtube here

The torque values for the screws and the order in which the screws should be removed you can fnd it here :

The most important tips from this video would be :
- Remember to re attach the clutch speed / temperature sensor when you install the Mechatronic unit.
- When unscrewing the mechatronic unit, unscrew at least 90 degrees by one move in order to avoid gripping the screws.
- Always remember to empty the gearbox of oil before starting the removal operation. (unlike I did in the video)
- Make sure the Mechatronic unit is seated correctly into the guides of the gearbox before you tighten the screws.

Else, the job is quite straight forward and if you use the small PDF guide you should be ok.
