Hi Everyone,
I guess this will be a traditional topic but I wondered about DSG v's Manual?
I've always had manual on all my cars, but was thinking the DSG might be good and nice for a change. I've driven one and thought it was great, although wondered if the novelty would wear off.
My main questions are about reliability - having seen how they work there are a lot of bits to go wrong, how do they fair with higher milages? I use my car everyday and go all over the country so want it to be reliable. I've heard as long as you change the oil they are pretty reliable, is this true?
The other thing is around how they are in the snow? As said have to keep driving, and when the snow came (pretty heavy where I was staying) I was still happily driving around despite being in a powerful RWD car - mainly due to being able to keep control. Does the DSG give you the control needed? Us you can't bring the clutch in as needed I'm a bit concerned?
Any thought welcome!
P.S I did try to search but couldn't find an answer
Cheers
Paul
