2011 Volkswagen CC 4dr Sedan
turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD

| 37000 mi | DSG was working rather strange. DSG was delaying engagement unpredictable and random. It came to the point when I press accelerator and vehicle would wait for second or two before start movement. When driving becomes a science - it's time to move on. |

turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD
| 42000 mi US $180 |
CC has a know issue for its drive train, the car has a very noticeable bump into gear when driving off from a stop. It is related to the electronic shift, when you come to a full stop the transmission shifts automatically in and out of gear. |
| 89500 mi US $5000 |
Transmission was failing to shift and would overheat and cause car to go into limp mode. |
