CSC Motors DSG Remapping
In Glenrothes, Fife
CSC Motors offer remaps and tuning for VAG Group Automatic Gearboxes including Porsche, Lamborghini, Bentley, Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, and Skoda at our garage in Glenrothes, Fife.
Most will argue that the DSG gearbox is one of the finest auto gearboxes available on the market today. Its ability to change gear in a fraction of a second and predict the driver's next move is a masterpiece of engineering. However, like all OEM systems, it can be restrictive.
Our custom DSG Remap is designed to remove these restrictions and adjust settings to complement the performance-minded driver.

DSG Gearbox Tuning Explained
A direct-shift gearbox (German: Direkt-Schalt-Getriebe), commonly abbreviated to DSG, is an electronically controlled dual-clutch multiple-shaft manual gearbox in a transaxle design, without a conventional clutch pedal and with fully automatic or semi-manual control. The first actual dual-clutch transmissions were derived from Porsche in-house development for their Model 962 racing cars in the 1980s.
In simple terms, a DSG is two separate manual gearboxes (and clutches) contained within one housing and working as one unit. It was designed by BorgWarner and is licensed to the Volkswagen Group. By using two independent clutches, a DSG achieves faster shift times and eliminates the torque converter of a conventional automatic transmission.
There are several variations of DSGs across the VAG vehicle range. Some DSG gearboxes lend themselves more to tuning than others, so to help determine which gearbox you have, we handle application analysis directly in our workshop. On most Audi models, the DSG is referred to as an S-Tronic gearbox.

The Performance Benefits
Our custom DSG Remapping service adjusts the following key parameters and options:
Increased Torque Limiter
When tuning the engine management system, torque limiters are increased. However, if the vehicle is equipped with a DSG gearbox, output will be restricted by the torque limiter set in the DSG module. We raise the DSG limit to match engine output.
Quicker Shift Speeds
Shift speeds can be increased by up to 20%, reducing lag and improving acceleration. Quicker shift speeds also provide smoother transitions between gear changes and improve paddle shift response time.
RPM Limits & Shift Set Points
RPM limits and shift set points can be adjusted in drive and sports modes. Adjusting the RPM limiter as part of the engine ECU remap is not enough on a DSG-equipped vehicle; the DSG ECU determines shift points.
Launch Control
Launch control can be activated (model-specific). This allows your car to make the perfect launch every time, reducing your 0–60 time and increasing the fun factor.
Full Manual Mode
Even in manual mode, stock DSG software will force the gearbox to change up or kick down. Our custom DSG Remap gives the driver full control by preventing auto-changing when in manual mode (model-specific).
