Had my tt dsg for about a month now, initially i thought it was me, but when putting the car into drive it seems a bit jerky. This makes a tight parking spot tricky.

Anyone else experienced this?

I have a Golf gti with DSG, and it is smooth as silk. Take it back!

Sorry meant to say i could'nt but i would guess it was the the earlier cars, your local Audi stealer 'should' be able to tell you, I did a quick search on the TT forum and could'nt find anything although i do remember people reporting hesistancing issues

I have an A3 with DSG and it also is a bit 'grabby' when moving forward from stationary, it seems that the clutch engages quickly/suddenly when brake released and if I try to slow it down with the brake then it just disengages the clutch, makes parking close up to something tricky - I assume the clutch engages/disengages with a signal from the brake pedal. It's OK in reverse, just forward that's the problem.

I've had this since new and have got usefd to it and I find I can 'creep' it better by using the handbrake as this doesn't seem to disengage the clutch but rather just hold the car back against it, mine is also an 04.
