Reconditioned DSG 7 Gearbox for Volkswagen Golf 1.6 TDI

This reconditioned DSG 7 gearbox is designed for Volkswagen Golf models fitted with the 1.6 TDI engine (1598 cm³), covering engine codes CAYB, CAYC, CLHA and CRKB, under reference SMT. Reconditioning involves a full strip-down, thorough cleaning and detailed inspection, followed by replacement of all internal wear components including gears, synchros, bearings and seals. The gearbox is then reassembled to manufacturer tolerances and bench-tested before dispatch under reference SMT.

Signs That Your DSG 7 Gearbox Needs Replacing

  • Jolts or juddering during gear changes
  • Slipping sensation under acceleration
  • Gearbox warning light on the dashboard
  • Slow or hesitant gear shifts
  • Abnormal noise or vibration whilst driving
  • Gearbox stuck in limp mode

For this reference, the gearbox is sold without the mechatronic unit: it is neither reconditioned nor tested, and the vehicle's original unit must be reused by the customer. However, the dual-clutch assembly is included in the sale and forms part of the components that are inspected.

Exchange Basis: The Fast Solution for Your Workshop

This gearbox is offered on an exchange basis, rebuilt to 0 km: it is dispatched as soon as the order is placed, without waiting for the old unit to be returned first. Your workshop receives the reconditioned gearbox first and can fit it straight away, keeping vehicle downtime to a minimum. Once the new gearbox has been installed and the old one removed, the old unit must be returned; this return is mandatory in accordance with our Terms and Conditions.

Compatibility

This DSG 7 gearbox under reference SMT is compatible with engines identified by codes CAYB, CAYC, CLHA and CRKB, fitted to the Volkswagen Golf 1.6 TDI (1598 cm³).

Warranty and Payment

This gearbox is covered by a 24-month parts warranty, subject to fitting being carried out by a qualified professional. Payment can be spread over multiple instalments, with up to 10 instalments available.

EDEN BOITES supports you every step of the way, from your initial quote through to the return of the old unit.
