WOW very strange mine is literally the opposite.
If I accelerate low in first gear it gives a shudders. I have been driving it manual and absolute no shudder or nothing. Drives like a charm. Having said that will still be going to VW on Monday and let them check the issue out

Occasionally the DSG will get in a mood and be a little jumpy in D or S for that matter. My old Golf and my current Polo GTI have done it. I recall seeing other people mention here also, that giving it a bit of "exercise" in S or manual usually makes them relax again. I know it's how mine behaves.
I have said this before, but don't get paranoid. If you want to sit there and listen for every noise or every fumbled gear change to have something to worry about...you will find something. But if you do that you won't be able to appreciate how great these things are 99% of the time and that the quirks are relatively minor in most cases and what bigger issues there are... comparable ones can be found in any other car you could buy as well.I have to admit, I do constantly listen and pay attention to everything the DSG does, but I try to not let that get in the way of enjoying what a smooth box the DSG can be.

People much think I'm scare mongering, but why is it that when I, yes, me personally said I would take VGA to court over my dsg that miraculously a 5 year drivetrain warranty was issued? Because they know not only was I right in my arguments but that the gearbox is such a monumental failure that upon counting the costs, ongoing warranty support was going to be cheaper replacing gearboxes, mech units and clutches than people taking them to court or the Australian department of transport and infrastructure issuing a product safety recall and investigation.sigpic
