Replacing a Tiptronic gearbox in a VW Sharan involves several steps. First, ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported, then disconnect the battery and remove the driveshafts and any associated wiring. Next, unbolt the old gearbox from the engine, carefully remove it, and install the new gearbox, making sure to reconnect all components and refill the transmission fluid. Finally, test the vehicle to ensure proper operation of the new gearbox.
it can mean serious problems. If the gearbox has gone into limp mode it will take a long time to build up speed because it only uses 3rd gear in drive. reverse will still work. The tiptronic will not work. The revs will be high on the motorway.
