Not slagging off, just banter.  :wink:

Seriously though, VW have probably disabled  launch control until the engine is hot enough to cope with the added stresses.

Bad, bad, bad to thrash a cold engine.

I know you're only kididng mate, I did have a chuckle at your comment as it's true...  :smiley:

It's all because of the daffodils and the tree sap. :grin:

Spring is the start of the mating season, therefore the Sap is rising ie everything in the natural world is getting frisky :smiley:

Yeah, there's having a laugh about daffodils and tree sap making a mess on your car, funnily enough, the birds seem to like to poo on mine this time of year? :S

and there's people slagging each other off for getting a manual or auto, it's not just this forum either though...... :)

Hope I don't get the michael taken out of me for having a black car....... :P

There is no proper launch control feature on the golf dsg. However you can mimick the feature. Have a look in u tube, there are loads of vids showing you how to do this. Something the manual boys cannot do. Who wants to be changing gears in this day n age anyway ?
