whats it like driving with dsg in snow/ice?

Ello, pretty much as the title says. going to try and avoid driving in the conditions if they pop up. But it is pretty much inevitable. Also ESP on or off? I know the might sound like a stupid question but think about it. It brakes for u(or Does it just restrict the power?)...could end up sliding into curbs/cars what's your thoughts/previous experience?

ESP on in snow and use drive mode. Easiest and safest in my opinion.

Yes i agree. Drive mode ESP on open the garage door drive in and shut the door again. Open the door when the snow has gone.

Either do that or buy a set of wheels, fit winter tyres and Bob's your Uncle.

But I like to drive the hard and edgy way 

Anyway I have 4WD now, so I'll be practicing Scandinavian flicks if we get some white stuff

I got to drive around in the dealerships dsg when it was snowing. Its obviously better with manual as you have more control, but I didnt find dsg too bad.... unless your being stupid. Which I was.... as it wasnt my car
