Anyway tried it yet?
I use it quite a lot on the A3, it's an awesome display of DSG :evil:
I wouldn't mind knowing what the Golf is like?
-
Would you mind explaining how it works to a future gti owner?
Have you checked the vid with the 2 Japanese guys racing manual vs DSG GTI's ?
-
How do you do it oh exited about next Thursday one?
-
It goes like this fellas..........
1 - Pull up to the side of the road :wink:
2 - Left foot on brake
3 - Select Sport on DSG
4 - Turn OFF any Traction aids
5 - Dial up 3000 RPM with right foot
6 - Check road is clear
7 - Release left foot from brake
8 - HOLD ON! :evil: :evil: :evil:
There's no limit to the number of times you can do it, unlike the M3 with SMG I had a demo in some time ago :grin: :grin: :grin:
Matty
I'll get trying it with the Golf once it's run in...
-
I'll go try it later! :evil:
-
let me know doc, although i think the R32 will be exactly the same :evil: :evil: :evil:
-
I tried it and it works :evil:
I can't see it doing the clutch any good though :grin:
-
CLUTCHES! :rolleyes:
I thought the same, but it is somewhere in the book (a black thing in your boot) and there's NO limit to the amount of times you can do it :shocked: :evil: :evil: :evil:
How did you find it?
There's a moment of nothing and then 'BANG' you're off :grin:

++Are you sying that somewhere in my owners manual (black thing in boot?) it actually recommends doing this???++
How did you find it?
++Crude but cool lol++

++Yup but I cant see it being any quicker that flooring the f**k*r as you dont get the hesitation - Fun though++

The DSG runs with two clutches, one in the gear your using and one pre-empting the next gear, it's a clever wee barsteward. it's how is manages to be sooooo smooth

It should be, that's where i found it! I was bored so don't mock me for reading the manual :wink: it's not a case of recommending but it will tell you how to use the launch control facility and WON'T invalidate the warranty

To two and a very funny way to blast away from the lights :grin:

Agreed, but there's nothing better for showboating to your mates :evil: :smug:
I just want to see what the GTi does under the same conditions, i think it'll leave two black lines up the road!!! If i want to rocket the boxster i have to turn off the psm or i'll just sit there like a plank and destroy the clutch :shocked:
-
I was going to say your GTi will spin like feck! :evil:
-
I think so. Once I've run it in I'll check it out..... :grin:
-
With your left foot on the brake, how do you rev to 3000?
Mine blogs down.............
:huh:
-
Mine did the same untill I took it into N than returned to S then it was ok ok :wink:
