Skoda Octavia automatic transmission problems that the automatic/DSG transmission jerks

Hello everyone, I have a problem with my 2009 Skoda Octavia Diesel. The ABS/DSC systems are no longer working properly. I suspect that it could be due to worn transmission fluid. Have any of you had similar experiences? How did you fix the problem and what was your experience at the garage? Thanks in advance!

Summary of the thread

A 2009 Skoda Octavia owner is experiencing issues with the ABS/DSC systems, suspecting worn transmission fluid as the cause. A similar case with a 2010 Skoda Superb was resolved by replacing the gearbox oil, which restored the systems' functionality. Additional suggestions include checking the sensors and wiring to the ABS control unit, as these could also contribute to the problem. The owner plans to change the transmission oil and inspect the sensors and wiring to address the issue.

Hey, I had a similar problem with my 2010 Skoda Superb. I have some experience with cars, but I'm not a professional. In my case it was actually worn gearbox oil ("gearbox oil worn out"). I visited the garage and had the gearbox oil replaced. It cost me 365 euros. After that, the ABS/DSC systems worked perfectly again. Could you give me more details about your car? What mileage does your Octavia have and when was the last service? That could help to give you more specific tips. Best regards!

Hey, my Octavia now has 189654 km on the clock and the last service was about 10,000 km ago. I will consider changing the oil. Thanks for the tip! Best regards!

Hey, no problem, you're welcome! With your mileage and if it's been 10,000 km since the last service, it could really help to change the gearbox oil. Also have the sensors checked, they are sometimes susceptible and can affect the ABS/DSC system. If that doesn't help, the battery or the wiring to the ABS control unit could also be to blame. I once had a problem with a loose connection in my Superb and it caused similar symptoms. Hope you find a solution soon! Keep us up to date on how things progress for you. Best regards!

Hey, thanks again for the tips! I will definitely have the transmission oil changed and have the sensors and the wiring to the ABS control unit checked. Let's see if that fixes the cause. I'll keep you posted on how things progress. Best regards!
