dsg

Hi Guys, I am on the verge of buying an Altea XL Stylance TDI 140bhp. I had dismissed the automatics but a dealer has one with a DSG box for about the same money as the manuals are going for. I currently have a Zafira 150bhp cdti with a tuning box and love the torque of the motor but cannot...

Anyone know more about Revo's DSG software, I see it removes the kickdown feature and allows you to set the launch control. Is this built into a remap or is it a separate programme? Anyone got it installed? Cost? Cheers

Is anyone else finding the kickdown feature a little annoying with the DSG, can it be disabled? Maybe its just me but under acceleration it drives me mad when I floor the accelerator and it automatically kicks down gears in tiptronic. I've noticed the accelerator pedal is in stages, maybe it can...

Hi All, Does anyone know (possibly "Techie"), if you can fit FR/Cupra Steering wheel with Paddle shift controls to a 1.6 SC Sport with DSG???

One thing in particular i was wondering if anyone knows how much more it costs for Road tax? as the dsg as higher emmisions that the manual TDI CR does.. Also does it more prone to higher costs if they can go wrong etc. Is it a bit of a an expensive novelty that can remove a lot of...

Hey, I am buying a FR TDI but i am unsure about one thing. To get a DSG or Manual. Any problems with either? Also does anyone regret getting one? Currently driving a Golf Slomotion so i know its gonna be different......mainly the mpg!! Chris

Hey folks! First post in the MK5 section... Go easy! ;) My work commute is about 35-40 miles a day return, I currently have an Ibiza Cupra MK4 which is a absolutely lovely car, but my daily drive is turning into a bit of a 'stop-start' affair, as the traffics always congested and driving...

just reading auto express and talking about VWs not selecting gears any one here having problems? seems to be all models

Hi guys I have something strange need... I would like to reverse the gear stick effect on DSG model. I would like to push/send away for down shifting and pull/approach for up shifting. Like on BMW's, go-karts, rally cars, etc. I found the connector under the gearbox plate. I need...

Seems to be a stumbling block with the new Ibiza Cupra Bocanegra when it comes to tuning. I've read some info about DSG transmissions on other sites and a select few people seem to know a great deal about them and have been involved in the testing, because the other forums have been aimed at...

Hi, I noticed this morning, and again this afternoon that my DSG gearchanges were not as smooth as usual. The car feels like it is lurching during gearchanges at low speed. Could this be a fault? Clutch problem? The best way I can describe the feeling is that it felt like the clutches were...

Hi, Please answer this: which is better a seat leon or vw golf (iam talking 1.6l and DSG for both of them cause they are the only engines avaliable:() . Please say why?!

anyone thought one these? http://www.thettshop.com/interior.asp?cat=5002&product=202613 do they fit the new ibiza? these seem pricey but are there any alternatives out there??

I would like to ask if somebody except me knows this issue: when I gentle hit the DSG gearbox tunnel his lightning turn off, and then with another tap will turn on again. I recorded a video that shows the problem http://www.megafileupload.com/en/file/158472/LEON-avi.html I'm afraid I have...

Hi, Just picked up my new ride, Black Orions on Black Magic with black/congnac leather. I am extremly satified so far, very nice car. Anyone have some opinion on the Ipod cradle ? /gilius

I've read in a few threads about the DSG learning your driving style. Is this correct? Do the gear changes etc actually alter when the car gets used to the way you drive??

Hi, has anyone else noticed with the DSG Ibiza's that when in fully auto mode the downshift gear changes seem to be left until the engine is labouring and vibrating, rather than where you would choose to change if driving it in 'tiptronic' mode? On many occasions I have manually downshifted...
