I was playing with the lag thing the other week (in the DSG) and came to the conclusion that there must be something similar to the hill hold function, as there is no rollon or anything when you lift your foot off the brake. I tried this on some slight hills, and it holds the car still for 1-2 seconds even after you have the throttle down, before it starts to engage and move forward.
On a flat road, there is a 1-2 second pause after you lift off the brake before it will start rolling forward which i assume is the time for the DSG clutch to engage. If this was only the case though, there would be a small amount of roll back on a hill before it engages, but there was none on mine. Anyone else found this to be the case?
I've since had an ECU tune done, and the gap between taking the foot off the brake and the car moving forwards now seems to be instant (or at least less than half a second), even though no DSG changes were made. I'm yet to experiment further with hill starts and launch control.
