> * The DSG transmission has a weird bug that causes some lurching at low speeds, like the transmission suddenly up & down-shifts repeatedly. Many drivers report this same issue but my dealership won't acknowledge the problem. They have been unable to reproduce it. I can reproduce it every morning when leaving the parking garage.
Is it available in manual? If so, I want it.
- jmspring 14y agoMy Jetta Sportwagen (2010) is a manual TDI. I'd never go with a DSG for two reasons: 1. I like manual transmissions. 2. The added maintenance costs for the DSG for factory service is around $1k at the 40k mile point.
- buss 14y agoIf you like manual, then the manual TDI will be very fun to drive. I can't be bothered with manual transmission, though. I have paddle shifters for the DSG but I never use them.

- jjcm 14y agoI think that the DSG transmission is always automatic, but it does have paddle shifters if you want to take over manual control.
