Hi,
I have had two Jettas (2004-MK III and 2000-MK IV). For both, I had to replace automatic transmission. Lesson learned in 2004, after spending almost 11000$, I learned that VW was not able to make reliable Auto Transmission.
Now I like to buy a TDI to save on gas cost.
My car options are:
Considering the painful past experience I had with older Jetta auto transmission, is there a significant improvement in the Jetta DSG auto transmission?
In past I heard suggestion not to have auto transmission on TDI. Is it still the case? Is there any problem with having auto transmission on a jetta TDI?
Any comment would be appreciated,

My car options are:
- 2011 sports wagon TDI (previous body)
- 2011 Jetta sedan TDI.
- Automatic DSG Automatic Transmission
- Manual Transmission
