DSG Automatic Gearbox | Handover videos

**THIS VIDEO - Controls for the automatic gearbox**

Due to the recent government advice to reduce the spread of Coronavirus, some of our customers may prefer a shorter vehicle handover process when collecting their new or used car from us. Because of this, we have created a series of videos to cover some of the technology on our latest cars, which can be watched in the comfort of your own car!

Hopefully you will find these videos helpful however if there are any features you feel haven’t been covered, please let us know and we will happily make a video to cover it!

Please help me figure it out. VW DSG often happens that I want to accelerate and smoothly press the gas, but there is a delay of 1 second and the car accelerates not smoothly, but sharply. It’s as if she thinks for a while and then suddenly realizes that I want to speed up. I don’t bring the pedal to kickdown, it stays somewhere in the middle
I found out about kickdown, it is very similar to this function. I have nothing to compare it with; on a manual, if I pressed the gas like that, the revs would immediately increase.
The car itself accelerates normally, but if I need to press the pedal more confidently, I expect smooth but aggressive acceleration. But in the end, after thinking a little (perhaps lowering the gear), the car suddenly picks up speed, as if I had sharply pressed the gas pedal.

Ive seen dsg boxes on cars without the flappy padels the downside to them is that if your in auto mode you cant downshift. With padels if your in auto mode you can down or upshift with the padels.

Saying dsg automatic is like saying manual automatic. DSG short for Direct Shift Gearbox aka Dual Clutch Gearbox is a gearbox of its own. Automatic is another gearbox. Auto uses a torque converter. DSG/DCT has two clutches with manual gearbox framework and mechanism. Two completely different gearboxes. When will people realize that.

When I drive down steep hills I notice the revs go up massively which is embarrassing. I switched it into manual mode and when I push forward to go up a gear it quietens but if I go down a gear it revs aggressively. I don't understand because I see signs on steep declines saying to stay in low gear. Please help feel so thick

Do all DSG sticks allow you to pull down to toggle D and S?

[marcuscamillus]

Anybody got any idea what the little trigger on the gear stick does? Seems like it’s just there to fidget with

[steves]

Maybe a stupid question, but new to dsg. When you go in reverse can you go to drive without standstill? Or do you really need to stop?

Question: can you flip the gearstick from drive to manual position while you’re cruising at speed?
