The engine seems to rev a lot before it changes gear. My passat changes up much sooner, I'm curious as go why?

Would u say the dsg box is reliable over the manual I’m looking at a 14 plate with 56k miles ?

@DRIVECARSPOV Жыл бұрын

Yes both need maintenance as for the manual you will need to change the clutch and flywheel at some point. DSG needs to be serviced every 40k miles. So you be the judge of that 👍🏼

@@Bell01- do not get a 1.6 litre dsg, the dsg in this car is a 7 speed dry clutch that cannot be serviced as there is no oil, they are garbage. Google ‘dsg dq200 problems’ and see how many issues they have. The 2 litre diesel has the 6 speed wet dq250 dsg which is 100 times more reliable. That’s the one you want. They only put the 6 speed wet dsg box in the engines with higher torque as the dry clutch unit cannot cope with it because they are so prone to breaking. If you get a 1.6 litre you have to get the manual, otherwise the dsg can fail at any point after 40k miles (or earlier) as the clutch packs overheat due to there being no oil as it’s a dry clutch. If you can get a 2 litre, get the dsg as it’s great and reliable. Same goes for all Audi, VW, Skoda and Seat cars. For what it’s worth, a dsg service costs between £100-£200 depending on the garage. But you cannot service the 1.6litre cars dsg because there is no oil to replace. Hope that helps

How do you find the 1.6 to be for motorway driving and general around the town . Does it feel quite powerful or slightly sluggish moving up the gears . Thx

Why is the idle speed higher than usual?

@DRIVECARSPOV 11 ай бұрын

It is normal

@vsswho 10 ай бұрын

he was sport mode, which keeps the rpm higher and lower gears for better acceleration, normally it would shift at 2000 rpm since its a diesel.

How reliable are these VW MK7 auto gearboxes? Looking to get one just curious as to your experience with it

@DRIVECARSPOV 11 ай бұрын

Very good gearboxes. If you getting the DSG version, make sure it has been serviced as per manufacturer between 40k to 60k miles.
