The DSG kicks me in the kidneys in heavy traffic, the interior rattles, the suspension is noisy over badly paved roads, the electrics start acting up. But then there are nights like tonight...
The streets were packed-ish but I had room to move and dart around lanes, the DSG and 2.0 TSI are a jewel of a combination.
The suspension is smooth in a very Passat-ey way but the Pilot Sport 4s grip and the thing handles relatively well as I nearly hit a parked bus, it feels like a long GTI.
New discs and sport pads on all corners help a lot.
The leather inside is soft and comfortable, unlike a 3 series, and my buttocks are warmed by the best seat heaters in the business.
There are lots of space for activities in the back, because longroof.
I both hate and love this thing - and can’t find anything to replace it.
Fuck me the oil is low again.

Is the Passat quite new to you, the DSG can take a while to learn how you drive sometimes.

I mean, one and a half years are enough to get to grips with the car. But the 1-2 shifts in traffic are still kinda rough.

Sorry I was confusing you with someone else, by bad.
There has been a few issues with the DSG on the 2.0TSi Skoda apparently, recently.

Have you stayed up to date on your DSG services? Given any thought to a TCU tune? The DSG in my S3 is marvelous - smooth when I want it to be and crisp when I need it to be.

Yep, did all the maintenance at VW at the determined intervals, they checked it thousands of times and every complaint is answered with “that’s normal”
If never failed on me, or missed a shift or anything. But on stop-and-go traffic it really lets me down.
I don’t think we have the same DSG though.
