In this video I demonstrate and describe the brief process on how to reset the engine and transmission control modules on VW, Audi, Skoda, and Seat vehicles built starting in the late 1990s equipped with an electronic drive-by-wire throttle. The steps to reset these modules is as follows:
1/ Get into the passenger side drivers seat of the vehicle;
2/ Close the Drivers Door;
3/ Lock all of the Vehicles Doors;
4/ Switch the Ignition to the Accessory position;
5/ Wait for at least 15 seconds
6/ Push the Accelerator Pedal all the way down (as far as it will go) and hold it there for at least 30 seconds;
7/ Whilst still holding the Accelerator Pedal down switch off the Ignition ;
8/ Switch of the Ignition;
9/ Remove your foot from the Accelerator pedal;
10/ Remain sitting in the car (with all of the doors locked) for at least 3 minutes;
11/ Start the Vehicle
12/ Drive the Vehicle how you would normally drive for 15 minutes.
By following the procedure outlined in this video it may help resolve potential transmission issues in your vehicle, but be advised that this is not a substitute for having a professional technician resolve major internal mechanical issues in your engine or transmission if the vehicle continues to have issues after performing this procedure.

Thanks so much for this video. It saved me $8,500.00 USD. The dealership told me that it wouldn't accept the code and charged me $398.00 to hook it up to their computer. They said the electronics in the transmission were bad. They would have to replace the transmission for $8,500.00 dollars. It wouldn't shift past 3rd gear and was banging when shifting gears. Drove it home at 45mph. I saw this video and it took me 3 tries but now the 2007 VW beetle runs great. Dishonest dealership, I think so. Certified VW mechanics can't put the code in but I can by using this video. Thanks again you are the greatest.

This actually worked like a charm! I have a 2005 Jetta TDI wagon that got a new automatic transmission and for the last 2 years after getting it back from the shop it has had a very hard shift from 2nd to 3rd gear and not very smooth in others this reset just made this car feel brand new. Thank you!
I have a 2017 passat rline 1.4tsi which is now 6yrs old, and developed a judder when pulling away in 1st gear. I was going to book it into a dealer at the cost of god knows how much, but after some searching, I found this video. All I can say is Wow! No judder and gear change is as smooth as silk, and the engine is definitely purring quieter now. Once again, thank you very much!!
Thanks mate, great video and timing. I reset while in Cole’s car park, but I’d had a few so I didn’t drive home. My wife drove but I didn’t ask her how it felt as she never notices any difference with the car. Will go for a long drive tomorrow and give feedback. Thanks again 😊
Thank you for your assistance. It worked. And within seconds could tell a huge difference. Thank you
Thank you soo much for this very helpful and well made video! My 2018 VW Tiguan had been struggling with acceleration, jumpy shifting and poor gas mileage after getting some work done @ VW. They dismissed my concerns since no lights were on but I knew it felt sluggish. Followed your steps and now it’s got its edge back! Responsive, getting better mileage, and much more enjoyable to drive. I live in sport mode and like to “drive it hard” haha. Can’t thank you enough!!

Hi I got a 2005 Jetta 2.0 I did have to change the throttle body on it about a year and some change ago I got to use one from a junkyard and haven't had any issues with it since but I did notice maybe 6 months ago that I started having a leak from the transmission coolant box I went and ordered the bolt seals from Volkswagen dealership got a new transmission filter and some fresh transmission fluid and did a transmission fluid and filter change and went ahead and changed out those seals I'm going to try this message before I start the car up again because before I did this it wasn't going into gear at all I could almost floor it and it was not dropping into gear but I wasn't running any check engine lights or anything like that I'll let you know how it goes
Will this work on a 2011 polo1.4?
Will the reset work on a Jetta 5? I also think I may be experiencing the same problem because when I put it in gear the car doesn't move and the gear im in flashes.

Thank you for the information. I plan to test it in my 2008/2009 Audi A4 B8. It seems there might be an issue with the gears or shifting in my Automatic S tronic. While driving, it appears the gears aren't changing automatically in the D drive mode, seemingly stuck in the first gear I guess because I didn't hear any switch gear little noise. Only on Sport mode and manual mode, I notice shifts based on speed that are switching automatically and it looks good. I experienced a noise when starting my audi in P position today, giving gas for 15-30 seconds. Could this have caused the gear switch problem? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am having a similar issue have you figured it out? I’ll put my car in D and it won’t shift out of first gear until I put it in S then I go back to D and it will work normal until I stop and I have to do it again.
I have tried this several times and it dose work! But the issues always return. I am wondering if its the fact I live in London where my driving style has to change all the time....and then very different out of cities? Can anyone expand on this?

When your car is having problems shifting in the engine light comes on is this what you do I own a Volkswagen bug 2002. it starts to not shift correctly and downshift too soon and the engine lights on

Sport mode is always very agressive (too agressive for me). I would use normal mode, until it has at least 10K miles on it. If this complaint stays with normal mode, i recommend to have it checked by the Audi dealership.
I have a 2012 Audi A1 with P283C Shift Fork C Position on the diagnostic tool. I can move the gear selector from P, N, R, and D, but when I start to drive, it is stuck in gear 2. I wait for few minutes and it is gone and can drive normally. then few days after, it comes back, then is gone again. I have booked for a transmission specialist but it would be good if you have some experience about it and if this method of resetting the transmission program might work on my car. Cheers!

But when driving home the hi rev problems and intermittent stuck on gear 2-3 problems came back. I then asked them to tow back the car for repairs as I wouldn't want to be stuck on the highway in D but gears seems to be in N like it did a year ago. Maybe I can try this method of reset and see if the problem goes once I get the car back...

So it’s only been 10 days I thought it was longer. But I made sure to come back and share. So I hope this isn’t a placebo effect but I do feel a difference after trying this. The car shifts more to my style, I drive it in regular mode and it shifts better, no jerk on 1-2-4-5-6 etc. slight jerk at 3 for me still. It’s an auto, but feels like a clutch slip. It’s barely there now though. So I’m happy with what I have now. In sports mode it’s clean shifting. When it’s warm the shifting is even better. All in all , I believe it did work and I’m happy with the results. Jetta SEL 2015 TSI canada.

It’ll start to high rev and when I try to slow down it’ll have trouble shifting gears then it’ll high rev and shift gears at like 4RPM. I don’t hear clunking or gears skipping but I can smell the transmission fluid. Then I basically let it sit then it works fine again. No check engine light either!

Well from what I've learned the car has just got problems I need to address such as the module it's self but I believe it did help for a short while till it started throwing the code again but we will see
This procedure does not reset the gearbox. It resets the throttle body.

Hi Mate, I am not convinced at all. My experience is that the shift points changed immediately and I am quite in tune with my vehicles. Cheers Drew
