Have there been any changes to the 2014 Passat TDI/DSG that would reduce the hesitation that I experienced when I test drove a 2013?

I recently purchased a 13 Golf TDI/DSG. I noticed that the coolant overflow bottle indicated that the level was on the bottom line when cold. I contacted the dealer and they suggested adding 8OZ of water. After reading the owner's manual, I added 8OZ of distilled water. Now the level is on the...

I recently test drove the 2013 Passat, Jetta and Golf TDI/DSG. I noticed hesitation on the Passat and Jetta but not on the Golf. I later read automotive reviews of the three vehicles that noted the same hesitation that I did on my test drives. What is the difference between vehicles? Will that...

Where will the 2014/15 Mk7 be assembled for the US market? How about the GTD? When are they expected to be available for sale? New to the Golf. Just got a 13 TDI/DSG two door, and wishing that I opted for the 4 door. Otherwise enjoying the VW engineering.

What is the economic disadvantage, if any:confused: of buying a 2012 TDI SE as opposed to a 2013?
