    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
  2. Does the DSG Learn?

    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??
  3. Anyone else got a DSG?

    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...

    Differences between S and D on DSG box

    I don't drive it that often in S and it still manages to surprise and scare me.... yesterday I was overtaking, shifted to S and floored it. I was just genuinely surprised how quickly it kept on accelerating and holding to the gear... so my question is, is there a good, comprehensive list of...

    DSG woes.

    Friend of a friend has just been charged £5000 for a new DSG gearbox in his 3.2 TT! :wtf: Car has covered 60K miles so Audi are knocking 25% off for him as a goodwill gesture....bargain (NOT!). :cry: Something for the 'DSG fanbois' to bear in mind....;)

    FR TDI with DSG

  8. DSG or not DSG, that is the question

    I am trying to decide whether I want a dsg fr or a manual one. I have never driven with DSG, I find the idea of not having a clutch frankly, weird but I understand that some people who like a sporty car also like dsg. I have the option of getting one at quite a good price, pretty much the...
  9. To DSG or not DSG that is the question

    So I currently own a MK1 Leon and have been very happy with it but am currently looking to replace it with a Mk2. I have found what looks like a bargain but it's 2.0TDI Diesel DSG. I've never owned an Auto or a Diesel before. What are people's opinions? Is this a more expensive option to...
  10. Fuel Consumption on 1.6 DSG

    Hi, My New Ibiza has now covered 1200 miles, and I love it!! The is only one concern I have is that even with the most gentle driving I cannot achieve better than an average 37 mpg. I used to own a 2.3 V5 170 bhp golf which bettered this fuel economy from new over exactly the same routes...

    I would greatly appreciate any help in identifying Insurance companies for my Seat Ibiza SC Sport 1.6 DSG. I have tried many insurance companies including "comparison" sites, etc, but none of them have my car on their books and need to refer to their underwriters to have the car added to...
  13. Still loving the DSG

    Hey, Well after 2 weeks of ownership I am still loving my 1.6 sport DSG. The gearbox is fantastic. I tend to leave it in auto most of the time. the only weakness is if you are using cruise control the gearbox can go a bit wild at times, changing down 2 gears and screaming the engine to...
  14. DSG gearbox

    Hello. I've just registered on this forum. I'm a proud owner of a petrol FR Mk2. Having test drove both that and a K1 last year I went for the FR mainly because I loved the DSG gearbox so much. My commute into London in the mornings makes life much easier with this set up in and out of...

  17. Leon FR TDi with DSG when/ever?

    OK I'm sure I read somewhere that the new facelift Leon FR TDi was going to have a choice of manual or DSG. Am I right or just dreaming? If it is true when will I be able to order one in the UK? Been to 2 Seat dealers, and neither seem to know. Think I'm losing it :yes:
  18. Worried about DSG

    Hi All, I've ordered a new Cupra - due in October. I can't believe I've ordered a car without test driving it first but I was just so keen to get the new Cupra when it came out. Having now read loads of reviews, a lot of them seem to be saying the same thing i.e. the DSG system isn't...

    Altea 2.0L TDi 140 DSG Tyres?

    Hi All, Need to replace the front tyres on a Altea 2.0L TDi 140 DSG. Some other threads suggest I should only replace with XL tyres with a higher load index due to the heavier weight. Is this essential? Are original fitment tyres XL? Can anyone advise! Also does anyone have a tyre...
