Using our next generation sensors you can reliably repair your PDK for a fraction of a cost of a new gearbox! The distance/position sensor fail is usually indicated by 1731-1735 and other 17xx errors. Previously this kind of error required a new and very expensive PDK transmission.
But today it's a relatively simple job for a repair shop/garage working on transmissions. Please contact us with your specific details to make sure that this is the part you are looking for.
If you are a car owner looking to get your car back on the road - we can help you find PDK-experienced repair shop/garage in your area. Choosing a good specialist is the most important step on the road to PDK repair.
Fortunately, we can recommend you our experienced partners in USA, Canada, most of Europe, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Singapoore and many other countries!

T-Design sensor installation manual for PDK 997 991 987 981 718
Diagnosis:
- Car is undrivable or in limp mode
- Dash message "Gearbox fault..."
- OBD codes 1731,1732,1733,1734,1735. Often other secondary errors present
- OBD errors "Shift rod N displacement sensor"
- Dealer/Shop diagnosed "distance (or position) sensor failure"
The distance/displacement sensor is important part of the Porsche PDK gearbox. It's function is to tell control unit where all 4 shift rods are at the moment.
Gearbox control unit constantly communicates with sensor pack to make sure gear shifts occured correctly. Once the sensor goes bad/dies - control unit can not continue.
So it will keep driving in the gear currently selected, will not do any more shifts, and after car stopped - it will not let it drive again at all.
