09G Valvebody Removal 

This is the best removal video I have seen. Jus pulled mine yesterday (7/20/24). Much appreciated.

Nice job on this unit Gary, I suspect other lesser shops would just sell a full overhaul on a unit like this. I really appreciate your honesty and tech information you put out weekly. Glad to hear you're staying busy, stay safe as well.

exc video and instruction. I used cardboard and traced the valve body and put screws thru holes in cardboard to keep straight 🙂

You're a great man sir

Thank you, Gary, stay safe and have a great week!

I accidently allowed my shifter to fall out of my valve body when replacing my speed sensor, how do I reassemble the shifter and related springs contained inside the shifter tube

Great video,Gary!! I was changing the trans fluid this weekend and attempted to remove the safety seal on the fill tube...and the fill tube broke off (ugh). My question is, where would the tabs that broke off go? Do I need to drop the VB in order to retrieve the tabs? Thanks in advance for your help!

Hey Gary. Thanks for the video. I have a 2004 beetle with the 2.0 engine and the 6 speed auto/triptronic transmission. I am having the same problem. Trans shifts great when cold horrible when hot. I'm not sure what trans this thing has but was hoping that this process would work for my '04 beetle. Any thoughts?

thumbs up.. BTW: Grundeinstellung means "Basic Settings" in german in your VCDS.

Gary....thanks VERY MUCH FOR SHARING your Knowledge and Experience QUESTION: *Where did you purchase the VB?*

Greetings .I wish you where this side sir .My mechanic man was testing the Solonoid with the car battery and said they are ok hearing the clicking sound

Real great video your a hero! 😊

Thanks!

I got the oposit problem with my Volkswagen golf, kicking gears when cold, ones it warms up star doing fine, any suggestions? Thanks for sharing the video, it was very informative👍✌

The first to say thanks for your videos.

I have a 2015 volkswagen jetta 2.0 and when the car is cold it wont shift into reverse when it gets hot reverse works. Could tbis be the valve body?

Thanks for your very useful videos You are great man Keep going...

In theory, the solenoids can be replaced without takes completely the valve body using only 3 or 4 bolts longer to make enough clearance to replace them, right?

Hi there, found this video when I was searching answers to my transmission problem. My Audi q7 is doing the opposite. Bad when cold but good when hot. Also when it is cold and I drive it in the M mode, the transmission sometimes decides to switch to D mode then back to M mode on its own. When that happens the transmission bangs into a gear. Could it be a valve body issue too? Thanks!

Hi Gary, excellent video. My car is having a similar problem. It makes sudden changes when going from 2nd to 3rd gear. When do you estimate that a mechanic shop could charge me to replace the valve body? I have a friend who has a car lift and I could perhaps do it myself but I would like to be sure before doing it and if it is not so expensive I would also like to have someone do it for me.

I noticed that you on 30:09 never choose one of two option at the bottom. As far I know, you have to choose Reset to standard values, then push GO. In that moment is when the reset is done. Am I wrong? Thank you.

It appear that Ream Man valve bodies is no longer around, do you have another recommandation for 09G valve body? Scott

Would you have to use the Ross-Tech basic settings for a VW passat 2.8 4motion tiptronic after the valve body is replaced?

Awesome video. I have a 2014 Jetta 1.8T with the 09G. Currently I don’t have reverse… it just revs but it doesn’t move the vehicle. D seems to work but it seems “weak”, best description I can give. Only fault code I have on the vehicle’s transmission is a P0795 Pressure Control Solenoid C Malfunction. Vehicle has 145k and in pretty sure it has never had an oil change in the transmission. Could this be a valve body issue?

The "German word" in VCDS means "system back in basic setting"

Thank You Gary

Do you know why a VW with 09g wouldnt move before and after valve body job? I thought it was valve body but no go. Thank you.

I wonder how the oil doesn’t cause problems with regards to affecting the electrical connections ... there must be a certain amount of conductance through the oil especially as the gearbox wears and traces of metal enter the oil stream....it looks like all the connections to the sensors are not IP rated so the only conclusion is that the oil electrical resistance is very high and all metal trace must be captured by the oil filter...

Hi gary, I have a problem with that transmission skidding when crossing fourth speed!

One point. Your reman valve body didn't come with a spool valve and you swapped the old one over. The workshop manual explicitly states that the spool valves should not be interchanged. My reman VB from StreetSmart came with its own spool valve. Of course I have no way of knowing if it was the original, but I expect it was.

thanks for the vid gary but i have to say there is a common problem with this unit the k2 clutch drum piston likes to blowup which applies in 4 . 5 . 6

Thanks for the video. My vw Jetta 2006 does not engage the reverse shift. What could be the problem?

My Passat does shift hard when it´s hot jus in 3. and 5. gear, in reverse, and sometimes in 4. gear. Can I now which of the solenoids can I replace or should I replace the whole valve body? Can we find somewhere which solenoids are for what? Thanks

Hi sir.excellent education .. But I like ask ask your help. Like same this vavle body found in 2010 mini Cooper s .6 speed automatic. I have problem with gear shit .when I put drive (D) car won't move for some seconds then car start moving in 5th gear slowly ,gear indicator shows D5 in my car cluster. 1st 2nd 3rdand 4th gear were not engage..only 5th and reverse gear only works..help please

You’re last name is the same as mine …. Who are you lol Jokes aside thank you for this breakdown video and what not. Helpful.

QUESTION: Gary...is it necessary to drop the Valve Body to change Solenoids ? (my mechanic seems to think he can do it 'in place?' ) ???

One of the wiring plug clips broke when I was pulling them off. Any suggestions for how to connect it back and make sure it stays connected without replacing the wiring loom? My thought was to perhaps plug it in, and cover it plugged in with heat shrink to hold it together?

Hi Gary, you talk about this particular car showing the symptoms when hot may be the Valve Body. What if the same symptoms came up when the car has been driven for only a minute and it is okay but then the symtoms come up. Symptoms: 1-2 and 5-6 bump

I have a 2005 VW Beetle with the 09G. I was wondering if you know how the transmission is cooled. It doesn't have the external cooler on top of the trans and I don't see any coolant lines coming from the transmission. Any clue?

I have a technical question. Im replacing my 2014 VW Jetta 1.8 Valve body. I bought a reman. The issue is I was sent a Gen1 and my car has a Gen 2. They are interchangeable, but the solenoid layout is different. I can find any wiring diagram that give me the layout for the gen 2. Any suggestions?

Hie Gary. I have an mk5, 2005 and its giving me transmission problems. It makes a jerking motion when i put it in drive at then at times when changing down from 4-3. Now it’s showing all gear light(PRNDS) illuminated on the dash. Its currently stuck in gear 5 when it was put on the machine and can still go forward but very slow, reverse works like a charm. Do i need a new gearbox or just the valve body?

congratulations very good video very educational one of my cars has the same problem I know this video will be very helpful just a question how can i get the model or transmission number so i can order the correct part thank you so much greetings from texas

Gary... you mentioned if its good cold then no good when hot. My 05 beetle 1.8t is opposite. bad when cold but gets better when hot. what do you think it could be?

Do you recall the torque specs for the brackets that hold the pins that hold the solenoids?

Video and teardown is of great help. Im having a code P0748 - Pressure Control Solenoid 'A' Electrical, would you be able to help trying to pinpoint which solenoid? greatly appreciated, it is a 2011 Jetta 2.5

What it means if it runs bad while cold , but once it warms up .. its fine

Hi gary. Wish you were closer to me. I have a mini with this trans. Would not shift past 2nd when i got it. Replaced the valve body and it works good cold but when hot and coming to a stop or slowing, only going up a slight grade(say like you were coming to stop and gave a little throttle to get to the stop or if you slow and do a turn onto another road.it will slam into 1st gear early and feels like you got hit in the rear end. I dont know if the valve body i got was built right or if something else is wrong. I had codes in the past with the throttle body i thought maybe the throttle input is confusing the transmission or something.Any clue?

I have rebuilt many 09g solenoids. The coating in the factory bushing fail causing the anvil or whatever it called to hang up.

My vw Passat 2007 has hard shifting when I accelerate hardly. But in normal speed it shifts good. Do you think it's because of valve body or solenoids?

My car won't go into drive until it gets warm could that be the valve body😊

Hi Gary, nice video. What kind of trnansmssion fluid would you recommend? Thanks

Gary do you think that the 09G transmission is in my 2007 bettle? Ty buddy.

Can you do video putting back together? like what bolts go where?(knocked over) what torques? and all that. Big thing is my stuff got knocked over.

Hi Gary - have you encounter an issue where it wont go to drive after replacing the valve body? reverse is working but wont engage to D

Gary, great video. I wanna swap out my valve body in my wife’s 07 bettle. Is the setting back to basics settings necessary in this year model? Just wondering because I do not have the equipment for that. Thanks.

Hi..I have a 2007 vw transporter. Its a 2.5 automatic. It seems to be slipping when it goes into 4tg gear. 1st 2nd and 3rd it changes fine but when I get the speed up to about 40km it starts to rev up and not want to drive. Also the display on the dash that shows which gear I'm in is not working properly and it is not showing which gear I'm in.any ideas on what might be the problem? How much is a replacement valve body?

I got a question someone please answer. Are the TCC and EPC solenoids grounded by the transmission ?

Hi Gary, very informative video, but I have a question, my 09G trans is shifting very harshly from 1st to 2nd when hot so I bought a re manufactured solenoid kit, but non of the numbers on the solenoids correspond to the numbers you mentioned or that I have seen on diagrams for the valve body, and the colors of the electrical connectors are different! Is there any other way of identifying them?

Can you show the drive solonide please

Hi sir did you get a code P0730? Any help will be appreciated.

Hey Gary, nice video. Very informative. I have a 2012 jetta tdi. I'm getting a code p0733 gear 3 incorrect ratio. It revs at 4 rpm and gear 3 does does not engage. I changed the transmission fluid but it did not help. Do you think it's a valve body issue?

Is this the same valvebody in a 2006 mini cooper S ?

hi Gary i have a code PO721 transmission output speed sensor (G195)Implausible signal on my jetta 2007 wolfsburg 2.5 how much would it cost me to get it fixed at the shop or the dealer

So weird Gary. I had all codes P0731 P0732 P0733 come and go as I drive it from cold to warm. No OverDrive but I can get it up to 80 kilometers but it maxes out at about 2500 RPMS could this be limp mode as people have said? The book from Volkswagen says change the fluid at 180,000 kilometres I am at exactly 180,000 kilometres. Almost like the computer recognizes my speedometer and it's telling me to change the fluid? I just don't know if changing the fluid would remove all these codes or could it be a whole valve body but if it was the valvebody windows be different codes for the solenoids? So confusing I just purchased did Dan scan tool that will give me live data and I figured since I do my own work it'll end up paying for itself by reducing the amount of parts I need to change on my vehicles. Thanks for all your help I'm not holding it against you if it doesn't workout I am not a professional and although frustrating it is kind of fun

Hello, i have 2014 volkswagen jetta 1.8 turbo engine, i have code p072100 ,and p074100,p073200, they said it's out put speed sensor do you have any idea can you help me with it, the car has 76,000 miles thank you.

why is common for them to go bad? thanks!

I always love your videos. Question: Why purchase a rebuilt valve body and not just tear it apart yourself and put it together with new parts?

Would it be the same issue if the car is shifting hard when cold and normal when it's warm?

Where is your shop located? I may need a visit with my VW

Hi everybody I need help please Ihave transmission problem in my VW passat 2016 after RTA with crash of the gearbox case and cartair. And already I change both of them. Now there is delay in D drive with hit sense and the car start moving only with D5

I am getting a P0721 code and I am going to change the output speed sensor. It looks like I only need to remove that one bolt and harness? Not remove the entire valve body?
