Title: DSG accelerAtion feel
Post by: chigmuss on February 12, 2013, 07:20:49 pm

I can't think of a better description. I've got an Ed30 and in sport mode especially if I really boot it the accelerator seems to dip slightly under your foot as you keep the gas pressed to the floor. It's almost like it sinks away from your foot. Anyone else experience this, is this normal for DSG, it's my first ever DSG car so I have no benchmark for what's normal and what isn't?

It's the 'kickdown' function. :happy2:
