I did yeah, it flashed up. I stopped the car. Locked/unlocked and all was well in the world again.
The fault code was 19143 - Unexpected / Implausible Mechanical Gear Disengagement

They do drive well though from my short experience with mine seem to have quite a few niggles.
Out of interest what's the mileage?

This one does have a coulple of small issues, one of the bolts that holds the air con pipes into the condenser has snapped so I need to get that sorted. The DSG also had a bit of a moment the other day but a friend of mine who is a VW technician assures me a service will cure most issues... so fingers crossed!
Mileage is 77k, average for its age.

Yeah my DSG did too well couple of times now when going from reverse to park a couple of times it had a paddy.

It had its last DSG service at 26k so its overdue its next one.
A friend of mine is a VW technician and he's had a look at the car and suspects my DSG fault might be the fact it needs a new mechatronic unit or a simple software update and service.
Being as the car has 3 months warranty from the dealer I bought it off its going into my local VW garage on Thursday for a full diagnosis and if there is anything major that needs fixing i'l be making the most of that warranty.

Handy to know, its real pain because its such a great car and I just really don't need the hassle of having to get this sorted through the dealer. Just want to enjoy owning and driving it!
