Title: Sport mode woes
Post by: Bingham67 on 21 October 2013, 22:41

Dont get me wrong sport mode the way to go im using DSG but i have few niggles i feel like it keeps it in 3rd for way to long plus sometimes car cant seem to make it mind up in sport what gear to decide on.

Not sure if it going to wear off but this car cant seem to stop putting a smile on my face just wish i could keep it clean black probably not best colour for that.

Driven DSG a lot , in several cars ,In my opinion ,std drive for traffic and pootling , Sport ,rarely use it , sort of a drag
race option  :wink:  Only use Paddles in manual Mode , which I do 95% of the time ,right gear right time ,right place ,
most Involved way to drive . :smiley:

Unless, in my experience, the software thinks it knows better then it changes to the gear it think appropriate (that's unless the software has changed over the last couple of years)...
