wow this dsg gearbox is insane! the acceleration time and the smooth shifting from park to 1st gear is amazing 10/10

[QLFProductions]

VW hasn't deleted this video, amazing.

What gears have you tested driving less than 10km/h??

[vannyvann]

Looks an excellent car to drive around a carpark at two miles per hours.

Dsg me hole. She drove it at 10kph. Dsg did a grand job there

[FeelFree]

LOL, "hardly feel gear changing" while driving very very slowly, that's very funny.

[fluffchucker]

That's one terrific explanation - as I'm looking at buying a £40k Touareg
 0 to 60 - in a month

What is she trying to show us with this video ?

[LFC-Star]

I wanna  know how  it operates on  a  hill. I' drive a  2000 plate VW POLO with a  CVT auto gearbox.  How  does the  DSG differ?  Also if  I were in  traffic at the  lights on a incline would the  car roll  back when in  D mode? Or  would it  creep like a conventional  auto?

I just wasted 2:15 minutes of my life !

[ALFAGOMMA]

Walking pace the whole time and she raves about the smoothness of the transmission!  Did it even get out of first?  Of the 100 or so reviews I have read about cars with DSG transmissions, the reviewers always comment about the jerkiness or hesitation at low speed.

Not hatin' on you here, but you drove very slowly, to really test this DSG you have to press down the gas then you'll feel the pleasure of the DSG

[barryjames]

Now I Know this is old, but to come up on my recommendations?? something isn't right lol.

[hdbhehddbz]

97 people know more about DSG than this lady.

[arturh]

[sundarnair]

[silvio]

[joejohn]
