Hi All,
Can anyone answer some basic questions (I may be talking complete rubbish but doesnt hurt to ask).
I've never driven an traditional auto before but I'm considering one atm - my commute is stop start annoying traffic and I'm becoming a lazy git
Cars I'm considering are VAG 2.0t or 3.2 with DSG or something like BMW 330.
In stop start traffic it's my understanding on a normal auto you can just put your foot on the brake while in D or put the handbrake on. You don't have to take it out of D and it doesn't cause an issue?
But with DSG I'm sure I read that because it's a clutched auto you can't just sit with your foot on the brake or handbrake - you have to take it out of gear and put into N.
How are DSG's on hill starts?
Cheers
