Now look.....You can stay behind after class and read this young man
At the time of launch in 2003
[2][6] - it became the world's first dual clutch transmission in a series production car,
[2][6] in the German-market
Volkswagen Golf Mk4 R32[2][6] and shortly afterwards, worldwide in the original
Audi TT 3.2;
[7] and for the first few years of production, this original DSG transmission was only available in
transversely-orientated
[2] front engine,
front-wheel drive or
Haldex Traction-based
four-wheel drive vehicle layouts.
The first DSG transaxle that went into production for the Volkswagen Group mainstream marques had six forward speeds (and one reverse),
[6][7] and used wet/submerged multi-plate clutch packs
[2][4] (Volkswagen Group internal code: DQ250, parts code prefix: 02E).
[7][8] It has been paired to engines with up to 350 N·m (260 lb·ft) of torque,
[6][7] and the two-wheel drive version weighs 93 kg (210 lb). It is
manufactured at Volkswagen Groups Kassel plant,
[2] with a daily production output of 1,500 units.
[6]
At the start of 2008, another world first,
[6] an additional 70 kg (150 lb) seven-speed DSG transaxle
[6] (Volkswagen Group internal code: DQ200, parts code prefix: 0AM)
[8][9][10] became available. It differs from the six-speed DSG, in that uses two single-plate dry clutches (of similar diameter).
[10] This clutch pack was designed by LuK Clutch Systems, LLC.
[11] This seven-speed DSG is used in smaller
front-wheel drive cars with smaller displacement engines with lower
torque outputs,
[6][7][10] such as the latest
Volkswagen Golf,
[6][10] Volkswagen Polo Mk5,
[10] and the new
SEAT Ibiza,
[7] due to it having a maximum torque handling capacity of 250 N·m (180 lb·ft).
[6] It uses considerably less oil than the six-speed DQ250; this new DQ200 uses just 1.7
litres (0.37
imp gal; 0.45
US gal) of transmission fluid.
[6]
In late 2008, an all-new seven speed longitudinal
[7][12] S tronic[12] version of the DSG transaxle went into series production (Volkswagen Group internal code: DL501, parts code prefix: 0B5),
[8] lead by Audi transmission design engineer
Mario Schenker.
[12] Initially, from early 2009, it is only used in certain
Audi cars, and only with
longitudinally-mounted engines. Like the original six-speed DSG, it features a
concentric dual wet multi-plate clutch.
[12] However, this particular variant uses notably more plates the larger outer clutch (for the odd-numbered gears) uses 10 plates, whereas the smaller inner clutch (driving even-numbered gears and reverse) uses 12 plates.
[12] Another notable change over the original transverse DSGs is the lubrication system
[13] Audi now utilise two totally separate oil circuits.
[12] One oil circuit, consisting of 7.5
litres (1.65
imp gal; 1.98
US gal), lubricates the hydraulic clutches and mechatronics with fully synthetic specialist
automatic transmission fluid (ATF),
[12] whilst the other oil circuit lubricates the gear trains and front and centre
differentials with 4.3 litres (0.95 imp gal; 1.14 US gal) of conventional
hypoid gear oil.
[12] This dual circuit lubrication is aimed at increasing overall reliability, due to eliminating cross-contamination of debris and wear particles.
[12] It has a torque handling limit of up to 600 N·m (440 lb·ft),
[7] and engine power outputs of up to 330
kW (450
PS; 440
bhp).
[7] It has a total mass, including all lubricants and the dual-mass flywheel of 141.5 kg (312 lb).

so there
they are /were not the same thing intially.
