Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Gear change question

    Hi Karoq Owners,

    Have a 2019 Karoq and always wondered why the gear change from 1st to 2nd happens in a few seconds, it's almost unnoticeable but can be annoying when wanting to do quick acceleration.
    Has anyone else noticed this? I'm sure there's a reason and perhaps one of the quirks of DSG.

    Thanks!

    Sounds normal Idea is to get up in the gears to reduce fuel consumption. Stick your foot down harder or use manual mode

      Thanks, good justification for a heavier right foot!
