I have been off this forum for awhile, my TDI (2013 Jetta) went away with the buy back bs. I miss the fuel mileage with my 200 mile daily commute. With the buy back cars hitting the market at good prices, I am considering another TDI. I am looking at 14' and 15' Passat's with a DSG. My former TDI and current commuter (5 series awd BMW) were/are manual transmission cars. I am a little concerned about the DSG on snowy and icy roads. The majority of my commute is in the mountains, lots of snow and ice. What is your general experience with a DSG on winter roads? I always run dedicated snow tires, a new set each season, I am competent winter driver, just a little unsure of the DSG. Oh, I do not want another MT commuter, I am getting old and too lazy to shift, at least in my commuter
