What is the TCM (Transmission module)?
Hi, I took my car into VW because when my 2002 GTi 1.8T is not warm, the transmission won't make it's shifts. Once it is warm though, the car runs - no problem.
Anyway, the service manager at VW recommends to, "replace the TCM and retest the car" but if it doesn't fix it 100% then we would have to replace the transmission, "which is more likely the repair".
Obviously, replacing the transmission cost thousands more.
Has anyone else had this problem? I saw a TCM on eBay; is it a relatively easy fix?
Let me know. Thanks!
Marvin
