Overview
One of the most popular upgrades to do to the Volkswagen DSG transmissions is a tune. The Volkswagen Audi Group utilizes the DQ250 dual clutch 6speed transmission in all of it’s vehicles with up to 260ft/lbs of torque. The DQ250 transmission featured 6 forward gears and 1 reverse. It uses we/submerged multi-plate clutch packs as featured in the FWD and AWD models. So why is this such a popular upgrade? Well, tuning the DSG can greatly improve the way your vehicle drives. If you are looking for faster gear changes, change that kickdown effect, and raise the rpm to which the gear shift happens, then the VR Tuned DSG Transmission Flash is for you!
VR Tuned uses different OBDII tools that work with all 2006 and up DSG control modules via the OBDII port. With our OBDII device, you can easily pull the OEM software data out. Once you have the ID, we then use our database of VAG files to find the matching original firmware, to which we create the new tuned DSG or S-Tronic file. The question of “is this a generic or custom DSG tune”, can easily be answered. Once you have provided us the original software info, we can then begin to make your custom transmission tune.
To do the transmission tune, you need our OBDII tool we provide and your owm Windows PC laptop or tablet to do the job! We can incorporate features that you would find on the highest level VAG models to give you blistering fast shifts and performance. Much like an ECU tune, when you are driving normal, the vehicle will behave normal. This is the same for the transmission as it will perform and function normal unless you are getting after it with increased throttle. The driver will feel more involved with the car similar to a true sequential gearbox or manual transmission. Holding the throttle at a certain throttle percentage will keep the transmission from jumping to too high of a gear. This can be very annoying for certain situation where you want to keep the revs higher. Each mode of the vehicles transmission is dialed to deliver results for your input to the accelerator.
The DSG Tune does not affect your vehicles ECU. We are directly programming your DSG module only. The DSG flash cannot change your top speed limiter or get rid of a check engine light. If you are trying to raise your rev limiter and your vehicle is already flashed by someone else, they will need alter their code to match the RPM limit we set. We do offer ECU programming for these vehicles sold separately. The OBDII cable can also perform a ECU flash for you when you purchase a VR Tuned ECU Flash. When coupled with the DSG Tune, VR Tuned can make your Volkswagen purely unstoppable!

But most importantly, our product confidence comes in that we have owned these vehicles, daily driven these vehicles, raced these vehicles, and understand what the consumer is looking for. Our YouTube channel also features a host of videos showcasing our ECU and tuning products with before and after results as well as drive-by videos to demonstrate just how much more power and performance you can gain.
