My 2006 DSG with 75k sometimes feels like it has too much shudder taking off. My wife asked me why my car always spins tires on take off. I owned a 2010 with a DSG but dont remember if it shuddered or not. Anyone around want to let me drive there dsg? lol

My DSG originally was pretty rough, but when the VNT failed and I replaced it the length of throd (2009 JSW) must have been a little off or different and the starting was much smoother than before.
I think the boost came on more abruptly from idle than it does now.
I did not feel the clutch slipping, just a kinf of lurch taking off and it would occasionally spin the tires when dtarting around a corner or wet road and then the ESP made it seem like perhaps something was slipping.

I would check the VRT rod movement was smooth. Take a look at stop to.
