Noticed this sounds quite different in character to my DSG, missing the upshift raasp noise, and noticed also the revs "descend" between up shifts rather than instantly flick to a particular rpm, in DSG guise...

handbags indeed...
well all my cars have been manual til now, and swore id never get an auto, but having sceptically agreed to test drive a DSG, I became instantly smitten, depsite owning a 2 seater sports car before.
I see this semi auto box as something special and enjoy the fact that when I've dont fancy manual etc can sit back and relax in D mode.
Anyway, really you know your'e just jealous of the 0.2 second saving lol. (we won't account for all those fancy mods).
