When was the option of the S Tronic brought in for the S3 Model? Was this only introduced for the facelift vehicles?
Thanks chris
Thanks chris
No problem dude, must've woke up on the right side of bed this morning! Yer I love my plate, took me six hours of refreshing the page on dvla day of release to secure it!Very droll!!........I appreciate the response and i'm glad my preeemptive "thank's" gave you slight amusement. Nice plate.
Anyone care to give some proper justification?!
where in notts are you ?Proper justification? How do you mean?
I have S-Tronic and it is the first time i have ever used anything like it. I think it is awesome. My old Subaru was rapid but with auto gear changes my S3 would p**s all over it in that sense. Manuals have to be treated with mechanical sympathy on the changes if you want your clutch and gearbox to last. DSG has no such worries. In my Subaru, fast moves from a standstill were a waste of time as i have to sit there at 5k revs so it does not bog down when you pull off. S3 and DSG? LOL, silent at the lights and foot down and you're gone rapid style whilst the car next to you selects 2nd gear. Awesome. Launch control? WOW, epic. Even my missus loves that! lol.
There is nothing bad about the DSG S3. Manual mode - again, superb. The car will not let you wreck it or the box only changing up a gear if you don't. I like that as well. The fact you can use the paddles when you want a proper drive is just superb, the whole way the DSG works and changes is superb. I cannot find anything wrong with it. Notts ring road and traffic? Auto mode. Let it do all the work.
A614 and further North? Manual mode and have some fun! Just watch out for them damn pesky SPECS cameras now on the A614 LOL.
I mean, *engage rant mode* that A614 was 60 or 70 mph all day long and they have made it 50 mph and SPECS cameras ***.
'pop' The end.
I have the DSG also, and I love it too...Driving DSG fast in manual mode can mean using the paddles and the stick if you need to change gear mid corner as the paddles can be out of reach.
