The official I have ordered/received my new Scirocco thread
Don't think of it as an auto and get straight into using the paddles or stick. When i had the GTI i tended to up change with the paddle and down change with the stick. Works way better this way then leaving it in D. S is a different matter.
I shold be "in the club" by his time next week. The Bimmer is sold and on its way to its new home in Perth, my euro plates arrived Friday and the covered cup holder was collected today.
Big question.......do i follow your lead and now become MacR - the 135 bit of th moniker seems a bit dated now??!!

Oh yeah, I've already installed the Maniac DSG Paddle Extensions. It's been in M mode so far all the time. Don't plan on changing it expect when in traffic.
Rebecca, I'm waiting for a lady to come to my place. I sold my bike and she's picking it up. She doesn't know how to drive well (on her L's) so I need to drive it for her! ARGH!

I tend to leave mine in D... I love the burp on the change from second to third under WOT... Third to fourth would be good but that is loss of license territory...
I shift down with the paddle so I can hear the blip...
If you leave it in sport... it hangs onto the gears too long for normal driving... at least in D you can pretty much do what you want... or tootle along... but you will find all that out.. wiat till the exhaust carbons up a little... then it gets a bit deeper...

Well ladies and gentlemen, it's been a long few weeks, but the wait is over. Picked her up this morning, and she's a joy. Couple of pics of her.
Must admit this is my first auto car ever, but that blip on the upshift/downshift....oh my...makes me feel things I shouldn't mention on this forum. What a sound!
Question for all...the Golf R does the needle sweep on startup. Assumed the Roc did it too but mine doesn't. Same for all? I know it can be enabled via VAG but thought it was supposed to already.
Back to driving!
Congrats Con! She's a beauty! Man i'm itching! Mine arrive fresh of the boat on Wednesday, but still have to wait a couple of weeks before the dealer has it ready for me. The wait is getting really painful now.
Well enjoy the new ride and Happy Easter(guessing you are Greek-Australian by your name)!
