VW Golf R - DSG versus manual

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
The VW Golf R is good - but is it better with a DSG or manual gearbox? Read the VW Golf R review and see more pictures and video at Fedja: I tried GTI with DSG and manual. .and I choose manual, because I can feel car better, it's more engaging and not so slower if you have good practice and know how to use stick. Also manual car is lighter and has better handling, because you have 35kg less in the nose. Much better choice for track is manual. Also manual is signifficantly cheaper to maintain. There is no expensive failures, only clutch and flywheel.

yeah. dsg and haldex. that's two ways for your money, if you drive as a man who did't buy gti only for trims and badge: .
First failure will come from haldex, second from dsg: .
Vw better would find a Real awd system, not that fool-proof pseudo-awd (in fact, it's only a fwd with a little help from time to time, for a second or less)

Why anyone into driving would get a dsg in this model is beyond me, its hardly faster split second whoopee. To me its about being connected with the car enjoyable driving so what about traffic who buys a golf r to do business trips anyway. This car should be manual only if you want automatic simulator then just buy a play-station 4

Well looks like this will be the first and last Autocar video I watch.
Any -auto- enthusiast who chooses an automatic over a manual is simply killing true driving passion. So bravo autocar, can't wait until you're all out of jobs when you support autonomous cars also.

I would love to drive a DSG, but I would not want to own one in the long run. that half second you gain with the DSG during the 0-60, you will loose the time (and money) at the repair shop in the long run. me, I am buying a MANUAL

thing is. the next gears already selected with dsg so of course youre saving time during a change. i dont see what weve learnt here and dsg didnt suddenly come along when the R was launched.

If I wanted to drag race all the time I would get me a drag racing car: D, I got a small Golf R so I can have fun all the time with its handling and not by how fast it can get off the line.

I own a manual golf and I want to upgrade to the golf gti but im not sure if i should get the manual or the dsg, i have never driven a dsg before. is it something ill pick up quickly?
reply

Never again will I purchase a vehicle from VW my2016 GTI autobahn needs a new clutch after 25k and VW will NOT cover this extended warranty product failure. Lost me and my family.

On manual Gold R the driver keeps AC at fullblast of lowsetting. which means workload for it.
Just pointing it out. It takes littlebit power to keep the ac running.
