The Direct-Shift Gearbox - now needs no introduction (I hope). Here are some related articles.
Wikipedia articles Direct-Shift Gearbox (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-Shift_Gearbox) - of which I wrote the vast majority of, along with its citations at the foot of the page, and also Dual clutch transmission (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_clutch_transmission) - which again I wrote the vast majority of too.

DSG: the New DQ500 (http://www.volkswagenag.com/content/vwcorp/info_center/en/themes/2010/01/dsg_the_new_dq500.html) - VolkswagenAG.com
There was also a very important article on the http://www.dctfacts.com site, but they have since revamped the site, and a lot of their older links no longer work.

I'll see if I can add more when I find them.
