How do you drive a DSG?

[GolfTi]

1973 Automatic BL Mini Clubman.

I could select 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc whenever I wanted and it would stay in that gear.

OK no paddles but  still the same. Just quicker.


Don't get it.

It's still an Automatic.

Fast change -yes. Slick - yes.
Driver choice and anticipation  - no.

Yes, you can manually change, but what's new - Automatics have always allowed 'manual' gear change.

Have you tried it?

If you had a DSG for a week , I don't think you would go back to manual?

[GolfTi]

Yes. In a 1.4 TSi Golf.
Fast changing, smooth and refined.

 But still an Automatic.

Go back? What, to the 1970s??

Autos are nothing new, DSG is simply VWs name for their new Auto box.

VW Golf GTI Automatic wouldn't sound so good would it.

You clearly have not tried it and are just trolling.

Ignorance is bliss I guess

As just mentioned I have tried the DSG and really do not understand the hype. It is a modern automatic gearbox with a more obvious 'manual' option than older versions.

Still an Auto.

I've been on here a good while, my views on Automatics have been made clear. Never been called a troll before :embarassed:
