- *THIS VIDEO - Controls for the automatic gearbox*
Due to the recent government advice to reduce the spread of Coronavirus, some of our customers may prefer a shorter vehicle handover process when collecting their new or used car from us. Because of this, we have created a series of videos to cover some of the technology on our latest cars, which can be watched in the comfort of your own car!
Hopefully you will find these videos helpful however if there are any features you feel haven’t been covered, please let us know and we will happily make a video to cover it! - ตลก
Brilliant set of videos really helpful, thank you
Good one Mate !
thanks for that.i read the manual and couldnt grasp it.
Ive seen dsg boxes on cars without the flappy padels the downside to them is that if your in auto mode you cant downshift. With padels if your in auto mode you can down or upshift with the padels.
Please help me figure it out. VW DSG often happens that I want to accelerate and smoothly press the gas, but there is a delay of 1 second and the car accelerates not smoothly, but sharply. It’s as if she thinks for a while and then suddenly realizes that I want to speed up. I don’t bring the pedal to kickdown, it stays somewhere in the middle
I found out about kickdown, it is very similar to this function. I have nothing to compare it with; on a manual, if I pressed the gas like that, the revs would immediately increase.
The car itself accelerates normally, but if I need to press the pedal more confidently, I expect smooth but aggressive acceleration. But in the end, after thinking a little (perhaps lowering the gear), the car suddenly picks up speed, as if I had sharply pressed the gas pedal.
Maybe a stupid question, but new to dsg. When you go in reverse can you go to drive without standstill? Or do you really need to stop?
What models is this I ain’t got Tht on mode gear nob Tht button at bottom
Probably the AWD version with a off-road package
When I drive down steep hills I notice the revs go up massively which is embarrassing. I switched it into manual mode and when I push forward to go up a gear it quietens but if I go down a gear it revs aggressively. I don't understand because I see signs on steep declines saying to stay in low gear. Please help feel so thick
Lower gear then you would normally, not super low gear like 1 at 60mph. A lower gear will use motor to slow down, so you’re not burning the brakes.
It should only downshift when brake is applied to assist in slowing the vehicle down. Also depends on the model DSG, (DQ250 - 6speed vs DQ381 - 7speed). 6 speed uses engine speed to determine shift points while the 7 speed uses vehicle speed.
@@glsapu
The engine gearbox is engaging lower gear downhill to prevent the car picking up too much speed so you don't constantly brake.
Do all DSG sticks allow you to pull down to toggle D and S?
yes
Anybody got any idea what the little trigger on the gear stick does? Seems like it’s just there to fidget with
Use that to switch between p/r/n/d
If you dont press the trigger then you can change gears. It’s there as a saftey mechanism incase you accidentally move/hit the shifter and move it unintentionally.
Can you move from D to S during driving or do you have to stop first
Yes, you can do it while driving. It works the same way as he has shown
what does the P (park) do?
i doubt ur wondering still but when youve stopped the car etc ur to get our the car to go to the shops u put it from drive first to neutral then park to make sure the car doesnt go anywhere
@@yx_12isatyourdoor13 so is it basically a parking brake? Or does the car go to gear not to slide down a hill?
@@karolkilian2402e brake
Question: can you flip the gearstick from drive to manual position while you’re cruising at speed?
Yes
What happens if you don't shift in manual, does it eventually shift for you?
@@BongelaMnguni i think it does when it reaches max rpm
Saying dsg automatic is like saying manual automatic. DSG short for Direct Shift Gearbox aka Dual Clutch Gearbox is a gearbox of its own. Automatic is another gearbox. Auto uses a torque converter. DSG/DCT has two clutches with manual gearbox framework and mechanism. Two completely different gearboxes. When will people realize that.
Is DSG automatic or manual (changing of gears?)
This guy at parties
@@mi-bodyhealth dsg is dsg. Not auto. Why not? DSG uses two clutches, auto uses a single torque converter, not clutch, a torque converter. Although it shifts automatically it is not automatic. Because automatic uses torque converter and dsg/dct/pdk use two clutches just like the clutch in the manual transmission
@@mkviisWhatever a dsg uses, for a driver it's an automatic. Driver shifts the lever to D and gearbox changes gears up or down as needed. It's an automatic.
@@mkviis I feel your pain in trying to explain to people the difference in dsg, but they ain't getting it.
Just got mine yesterday,worst automatic I've ever drove,
What’s wrong?
@@AM-mv6ro don't get through gears right on own,going round corners in 5th n 6th gear,takes a min to build up speed,also high n low revs ,all in automatic
'... I've ever driven'.
What r the issues❓️
What car is it?
Don't buy a car with a DSG transmission!!! If they break, and they regularly do, it will cost a small fortune to get it repaired (3,5-6K)!
Hardly much of a cost, but that won't happen if they have low mileage.
They are very reliable if you change the fluid every 65,000 kilometers. I have a DQ250 with 490,000 kilometers, still shifts strong.
@@timeformetoact6 then you are lucky, lots of them get cracks in the mechatronic unit. Oil pours out: game over...
The only issue I’ve had is leaking from the oil filter housing, since it’s made of plastic. All the oil leaked out but the transmission wasn’t damaged, just had to replace it and refill. There are defective mech units out there, but regular fluid changes are critical for good operation. DSG is far better than conventional automatics or CVT’s, but if you prefer to have something that will not mechanically fail, I would get a manual.
@@timeformetoact6are you still on your original clutch pack?
