Paddle Down swift and gearknob changes work fine.
Has anybody any idea what's wrong?

Mine does it sometimes, i dont think its faulty just depends how hard/fast/where abouts i press as to whether it registers  :rolleye:

Does the OSIR set completely replace the original, switch and all? I though it was just the paddle part.

It sounds to me like Nikiforos problem is down to the microswitch itself.

....In 80,000 miles I've never experienced such a problem. Sounds to me very much what Garth is suggesting - A microswitch related problem.

I don't know why but since I added these TID paddle extensions, paddle shifting is far less 'clicky' and feels more direct : -

I think the DSG has "intelli-sense" to delay certain gear changes depending on speed and revs...  :driver:
