Im a manual transmission guy...i have sciatica..so i bought a 2015 passat with DSG..because my 2011 jetta TDI manual was an issue..my point is...i hate this DSG...i bought the passat at 95k..no clue if the dsg has been serviced or not...but i am not a fan of the way it shifts..or when i release the brake..it feels like the clutch is slipping then grabs...it feels slushy going into the gears..i thought the DSG was supposed to get rid of that lag..anyone near scarborough...or knows a shop near scarborough..where they can test drive and let me know..if im an *******..or there is something wrong....thanks in advance guys...

the dsg takes getting used to. the dealer will do a dsg service. or a shop that works on vw, audi, porche. its fairly easy to do.

are you able to take a video of it shifting through gears? They also have a hill start feature, so if your on a hill it will start odd. if the oil has never been replaced and clutches nor reset it will cause strange shifting. call a dealor and ask for a quote on a dsg service.

import auto specialist looks good. eurospot looks like they do wheel referbishing and a parts supplier. have to call and check. Not sure how many Canadians are on here eh'. but always ask whay brand parts and oil they use. Not all dsg oil is made for a wet clutch trans.
