I've only ever had one automatic.
Although it was the terrific DSG in a golf GTI. I guess it's 'semi auto' as its got flappy paddles.
I'm now back on manual. I don't mind it really. DSG was nice and I had absolutely no issues.
Yet I was always a bit worried about it after the dealership warrenty ran out. They can be an absolute expensive nightmare if anything goes wrong. A mate of mine had a skoda vrs and his had issues under warrenty. He needed a new 'clutch plate' thingy that would have been 3k if not under warranty. Then told if it didn't solve the issue he'd need a new DSG gear box (I'm sure it was around 9-11k). Although again under warrenty.
They are superb if like everything well maintained by regular serving and gear box oil changes etc.
How long before this becomes an EV thread?
