I think they're $33 each.

I told them I was from AZine and they gave me half off on shipping

3rd .. $92 Can.
4th ..$117 Can.

On checkout, there's a place where you can leave a note.

Or you can PM Tim, their vendor on the forum.

Closer to $47 & $43 .. & shipping


Interesting question ... if the ones that came with the car fail that early .... does that mean the replacement OEM ones will too?

People on the forum say to change the switches every 50k

$47 and $43 in CAD? mine were $33 USD each. I ended up paying $75 shipped for the switches and gaskets.

Just message AcKTL05 for pricing. I'm sure he will get those to you for an affordable price. He matches or beats any prices.

Rather then start a new thread..........

Maybe I can get some help??? I've search for 45 mins for Sport Shift or Tiptronic issues, problems, down shift,ect...

My problem... Sporadic problems using SS mode, It just doesn't want to down shift when I ask it to. She works fine in both settings if I let the tranny do her thing. I have replaced the 3rd and 4th switches and keep fresh fluid in her.

Is there a micro-switch or something similar that needs replaced?

Usually they don't go bad, what happened is the clutch material gets in there and clogged up the switches. You can get the switch out and clean it up with some cleaner and blow it out with air once in a while and it should be good.

That's not what happens at all. The diaphragm hardens up over time, throwing the calibration way off. Nothing to do with plugging up. My bad switches were perfectly clean yet way out of spec.
