DSG Launch control

[dazza]

Like @ROH ECHT said "It doesn't apply full force on the clutch pack…it allows slippage at launch."

If i don't have LC i can still release the brake at 2600rpm but i doubt its good for the gearbox.

@dazza so are you saying there are two possibilities here? I thought revving at 2.5k with esp off etc is the LC? In park and neutral you can Rev the engine but in D/S or manual mode it won't Rev freely anyway.

I have no idea mate. TBH i think it should rev more than 2600 when you have LC. Hence i think i don't have it.

When using launch control on mine, when I let off the brake, there is a slight delay before anything happens, any idea what's causing this? It sits at just under 3k

Same!

I've found my launch control absolutely useless since my remap :/

We do the APR DSG remaps and it makes quite a difference in driving and with launch control

I'm going to look into getting my gearbox mapped alright... Don't know much about it though

Dsg remap will give you faster shifts,raise the Redline a bit & higher revs for LC

Thanks. Will it do anything for the delay I have when I take my foot off the brake pedal when using LC??

What delay?power should be instant when u let off the brake

What delay?power should be instant when u let off the brake

I think some people with older cars are trying to launch when they don't have launch control.

My friends' A3 TDI S-Line doesn't have launch control.. if he attempts the procedure, he just hears horrible noise of the clutch trying to transfer power to a stationary car.. accompanied by that signature burning clutch smell 

so if you don't have it, you're just gonna burn out your clutch if you attempt it.. or so it would seem!

I have a slight delay when I let off the brake, but then it seems like the power comes. I'm not sure if I would get this power if I just went from no revs to flat out (obviously not flat out to the point where the wheels just spin) however...

mine revs to just under 3000 and there is no horrible clutch noise or smell, 05 plate

my gearbox also has a momentary delay from removing your foot off the brake whilst it engages the clutch say like less than a second but defiantly noticeable  i think thats normal  its not gonna be 100% instant
