How are forks actuated on a Direct Shift Gearbox?
The forks are actuated hydraulically on the direct shift gearbox, not by selector rods. Many times, the failures begin with sensor temps failing, either failing outright or falling out of specification. Many sensors have backups, so that if the main sensor fails a backup sensor will provide the data to the computer.
What happens if a sensor fails for second gear?
So, if a sensor fails for second gear, you will not be able to use that gear. Sender G509, a key sensor, can be found in the housing of gearbox input speed sender G182. It measures the temperature of the DSG oil at the outlet of the multi-plate clutches. It operates in a temperature range of –55 °C to +180 °C.

Where is the sender unit on the fuel tank?
The sender unit is located on the fuel tank and, in many vehicles, it is accessible under the back seat or trunk. This may require removing and lifting out the back seat or trunk carpet. Consult your service manual if you are unsure as to how to access the back of the gauge or the sender unit.
How do you replace fuel gauge and sending unit?
Remove the screws that hold the sending unit to the tank and take it out. Next, remove the three wires on the back of the old gauge. One wire goes to the center pin on the tank sending unit, one goes to ground, and the third connects to a 12-volt source, normally the ignition switch.
How is the length of the sender arm determined?
The length of the sender arm may have to be modified to fit the dimensions of your fuel tank. This also ensures that the gauge reads properly. First measure tank depth from the top of the tank, near the sending unit, to the bottom. This measurement determines the length of the sending unit’s float arm.
