Hi guys
Wondering which mode is best for a standing start MK 5 DSG. I find if it is left in drive it feels as if its choked then all of a sudden lets rip. would sport be better or manual? Many thanks

For what? Normal driving? or 1/4 mile sprint times?

Personally for me.. Sport mode esp off, left foot on brake and rev to around 2k revs and then let off the brake and put your foot down!
