In the end we are going to replace the wet clutch and hopefully resolve all these issues.
Okay , everything was changed one after the other.
Was Xentry used for a diagnostic etc ?
MB or free car repair shop ?
Sounds expensive and tedious to solve the problem.

Yea, the MU pooped itself trying to compensate for the loss of pressure in the MCT due to the cracked/aged seals. Decided to replace the plates in the MCT since it was already down and out.

Xentry was used for all the diagnostics, as well as all the adaptation live/standstill things.

Doing this at an independent workshop, as the only authorized dealer in my country charges many multiples more than what I am paying - not including how long it would have taken them to give me a slot and diagnose the problem.

I want to keep this car for as long as possible, so as long as she comes back working well - money can be replaced

Is your shop specialised to automatic transmission or a normal car shop ?

How much milage (miles/ km) has your car ?
Sonds like you have a 9G ( or 7G ) ?

They specialize in conti cars, so all sorts

I'm only at 61500 km - live in a small city state so not much opportunity for long roadtrips. The tropical climate + stop/go traffic probably contributed to faster wear and tear on the components.

I have the 9G
