Just wondering if its possible to update the DSG gearbox so I can modify at what speed the gear changes occur.

In sport mode/cupra mode with the DSG auto on I hate it staying in 2nd gear until 32MPH and then changing to 3rd gear.. silly!!!!

Would love to sort it out

Yes, a company like APR can alter the software of the DSG box for that.
Often they offer 2 or 3 different kind of tuning packages for this to suit your needs.

I just cant see why anyone would ever use it, for me personally it seems to do everything I dont want it to. then again I have it manual most of the time anyway so maybe its just what im used to as i like to be in control of the gears. Even in cupra if im going slow ill put it in D so its everything but the shitty gearbox mode. If i could work out how to stop it putting it in S to start with and never use it i would :D
