    Seriously man 70 pages in the MK 7 forum !
    Just about all these posts are about MK7s. Derr.
    I loved my VW
    Don't mistake facts for facts for negativity.
    I had 2 clutches and a DSG replaced in 30,000 kms. My car was running perfectly when I sold it.
    What I am spewing about is that it is was such a fantastic car, 32ks of hard earned money and two and a half years later didn't trust the ongoing reliability of the DSG unit.
    Believe me I wanted to, I just couldn't.
    I am mad with VW that I couldn't trust it.
    So perhaps instead of having a go at me you should pull your head out of the sand and do a serious reality check.
    BTW, how much warranty have you got left?

    You are forgetting the fact that the threads were merged at your behest and was moved into the MK 7 forum, far and away, the majority of the issues relate to the MK 6. The first post was dated June 2010, how many MK 7s were around then?

    Your bad experience is affecting your ability to see the facts and for the record, I've bought three new VWs with DSG over ten years and never had ANY problems.

    I hope other dubbers do as well as you have. Time will tell.

    Quite right George. I've decided to move the Mk6-specific content back to the Mk6 forum, and this thread now only contains the posts pertinent to Mk7s (despite the DQ200 and DQ250 gearboxes being fundamentally shared, albeit revised for the Mk7). Now down to a more respectable 16 pages, and hopefully a bit clearer for readers.

    I've was thinking about this earlier, people with "shuddering" issues specifically when pulling hard in second with wheels turned, are you sure it's a DSG shudder and not wheel hop from loss of traction?

    Wheel hop under hard acceleration can be quite violent. Just a thought.

    The wheel hop feels very different to the DSG shudder when it happened on the Polo GTI I had.

    I'm intrigued, can you describe what the shudder feels like please? And also what rev range this happens. I'm trying to understand what people are talking about

    Thanks

    GTI 7 DSG manual mode jerk

    Hi All

    Had my Mk7 GTI for over a week now. enjoyed it, a lot! However, I've noticed when i accelerate hard from 1st gear in manual mode, shift in second gear at about 5000-6000rpm, the car jerks like i am shifting a manual car. Then from 2nd to 3rd and 4th are much smooth no jerking at all. The car is all stock, 200km on clock, DCC set in normal most of the time.

    Although it is great a DSG has the feeling like shifting a manual car, but i was worrying about it might damage the gearbox. Does anyone else has the similar issue?
