2010 Audi S5 Convertible S-Tronic issues just had megatronics repair kit

Featured Replies

Well I have been the owner of a slightly modded used B8 Audi S5 Convertible with the S-Tronic gearbox for over a month.

Whilst I enquired about gearbox issues before I purchased the car and the test drive drive didn't highlight any issues.

I got the gearbox malfunction yellow warning, you can continue to drive after a few weeks after purchase. The car still drove normally and I didnt have any issues with gear changes on a hill, nor clutch engagement issues.

Not wanting further problems I decided to look at garages that could perform the mechtronics repair kit. Based in Ascot, I looked at 3d tranmissions in Reading and Milta in Bristal.

Finally found a garage on Facebook called "Mercury Auto Repair" in Hayes / Southhall and with many positive reviews on Google / good garage review and many FB images of recent megatronics replacement.

I decided to go there last week and I had the megatronics replaced today.

My car has 3 errors logged in the ecu:

Torque limitation due to clutch temperature.

Had the megatronics repair kit done today.

I also brought the extra N472 cooling solenoid and brought the 0B5 315 105 TC oil cooling pipes and 0B5 315 105 TA oil cooling pipes.

The owner Ciprian did all the work and I was very impressed. He used all Genuine Audi parts and was extremely careful with my car. They even had to deal with me watching over them at times for the whole day as I was working remotely there.

At the moment I have driven in heavy traffic and sprinted driving on motorways and B roads and all I can say is, the car is amazing.

I highly recommend this garage Mercury Auto Repairs.
