Harsh/jerky shifting in dsg power train unit. Typically at very low speeds. This condition previous investigated through closed case # pe09035. Issue relates to excess wear in solenoid bushings. Previously report by NHTSA that vw issued extended warranty of 10years/100,000 miles. Car was within limits but vw refused repair saying mechatronic unit (where the defective valves are located) not covered by agreement with NHTSA. Current NHTSA web pages apparently incorrectly report that vw does replace defective units. Jerking is dangerous in parking maneuvers.
