on a hill when u stall it

I've not stalled a car for 10 years or more...hill starts really shouldn't be hard to master.
I have the ability to work two feet and one hand in perfect unison.
so I don't need electronics to do a billy basic skill that should be mastered at an early age.

However if give it time it gives you just as much pleasure as a regular manual plus the added bonus of blips on the down change for example.

You get as much pleasure from operating a micro switch with less feedback than a Playstation controller?...or derive pleasure from using a gearbox where manual doesn't actually mean manual..it means sort of manual if the ECU agrees with what you think you need...and only then, it the cars own time.

Can't you blip the throttle on a downchange?
I can.
It's a skill that's been available since cars were invented!

Someone is just trolling here if the other manual v DSG thread is anything to go by.  :shocked:

All my cars bar one have been manual and the auto I had really made driving very boring but that could be because it was on a Pajero jeep that was slower than a week in jail  :laugh:

That aside, each to their own. Some folk prefer 5 door cars and others wouldn't thank you for one. Some prefer derv some petrol. Its very much down to your own personal taste.

I'm sure when electric windows / remote central locking / electric wing mirrors and so on came in, some folk would say "What a waste of time, for all it takes to do it manually" So for me, autos are just another evolution in the motor industry and no doubt in years to come when we are all old our grandchildren will be asking us if we really had to change gears with a stick in the middle of the car  :laugh:

It's a pity you haven't mastered the use of the English Language!  :grin:

If you mastered using your feet and hands in perfect harmony, not having to rely on electronics to not stall the engine, shouldn't be an issue.
you raised it...not me!

DSG = better, eh?
Had any problems with your DSG?
