It's a good thing we aren't all forced to buy the same configuration, eh?

In "manual" it relies on you to up shift until redline. But it will act like a true auto and downshift in "manual".

My point?
1) It should not upshift at redline..rather it should bang up against the rev limiter all day long until I tell it to upshift in manual mode.

2) It should down**** the gear in manual mode when I want it to, not as the computer see fit. Downshifting in manual mode on it's own is rubbish. In "manual" mode I should expect to upshift when I want, hold the gear as I want, and to control when a downshift should occur as I see fit.

Those two points alone differentiate a manual from an automatic.

...until I change my mind.

boki-san

I agree but I still love my DSG.

I'm bummed that the dsg won't let you rev up the RPMs for powerbraking.
