Could be the haldex unit at fault. I would take car back to them and get them to agee to cover the cost of a inspectin at audi and then see what faults are foumd by them and then it could be a different conversation as to who picks up a possilbe repair bill

no haldex in the c7, proper awd with a Torsen centre diff.
Stronic gearboxes can be a bit notchy at slow speeds but never had any issues with mine even at 60+ks. Could be a sign the gearbox needs serviced. It needs done very 38k.

You need to give us more information. Mechatronic units can go faulty.
As AlS3BE says, the gearbox need servicing every 38k.

What’s the mileage on that car?
I know some of these dsg boxes going 150k+ without needing clutch plates. Most common thing is normally the mechatronics giving up.

Is the electroplate kit a torque converter?

Is the electroplate kit a torque converter?

Don’t think it is. No torque converter in stronic boxes. It’s similar to manual gearboxes with flywheel and clutch plates. Only difference is the computer changes gears and not you.
Electroplate kit sounds like it’s something to do with the mechatronics unit. Maybe a repair kit or service kit.

No. You will need to ask the garage what the electroplate kit is.
