So a manual shift driver dumps the clutch on every gear change?????
And a DSG is NEVER used for rapid launches????
I'll state again - a manual clutch and a DSG will be IDENTICAL in their torque reaction!
....Agreed that a manual shift driver doesn't
always 'dump the clutch' hard but the human actioned gearshift will surely be more prone to abuse.
Also agreed that a DSG isn't
never used for rapid launches, but if you mean using Launch Control mine has only been used once in 76k miles and I very rarely action a rapid launch as I prefer to reduce the possibility of wheelspin.
My current thinking is still that there is much more
potential for stresses on a manual than a DSG box. I may be proved wrong but that's what I'm led to believe.
