I bought my octavia 1.4 tsi manual gearbox in mai 2014. One month after buying the car I heard a noise from the gearbox when the engine was cold. This happened when releasing the clutch while the gearbox was in neutral gear. Have been twice to my dealer and after opening the gearbox (6days in service) they stated that it is a normal noice.
A 1.0 TSI has a DQ200 7 speed twin dry clutch DSG which does not have a service schedule, recommendations or guidelines for oil changes. All New Octavia do not have Sealed for Life DSG's. Wet clutch 6 speed DSG's in 1.4 TSI PHEV's have a service interval, as do 7 speeds 2.0 TDI or TSI's. and AWD's.Also known as Direct-shift gearbox (DSG), dual-clutch transmission (DCT), PowerShift, S tronic, Porsche-Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK) For Very quick to change gear; quite fuel efficient. Against Fantastic 2.0 TSI DSG powertrain, no real competition in the price range. An extremely refined drive that is achieved by a refined engine, superb insulation all around and a well-balanced suspension. Huge boot space that can pack the luggage of an entire family and some more. Has most bells and whistles except ADAS and in-built navigation. 32sbS.
