Often, people who don't buy them new, don't realise that the 6sp DSG is a wet clutch. This means it needs servicing and fluid changes at strict intervals. Miss an interval and that gearbox is going to die.
The amount of information out there is astonishing if you're prepared to find it. It's like the IMS bearing issues on 996's - a tiny percentage of them went south but all the failures are well documented. Didn't Nurse Snr have a 996?
