I get the impression that the 3 cylinder engine is not really suited to the DSG.

On my Polo (DSG) when starting from cold I get a slight vibration when pulling away from stand still. (Feels like the gear is in a too high gear for the speed) Its done it from new.

I think the GTI have got the wet clutch. But rest of the Polos with the 1.0 engine got the dry clutch.

From my own research it’s a sealed unit with separate oil for the mechatronics and the gearbox itself. The mechatronics is sealed and the gearbox oil ‘can’ be changed but isn’t absolutely required. Unfortunately the unit will wear and eventually the clutch will need replacement and it will cost a f...

What's the service schedule for the 7 speed (dry clutch) DSG. VW says it does not need servicing at all for life of the gearbox and you read online its every 40k miles. I intend to keep the car for a few years so I want keep everything healthy. And do anyone know a VW specialist in the Birmingham ar...

I have found lot of the time it’s all reset is self after I have refuelled the car. I fill up with fuel reset the trip computer drive home and the next time I use the car everything has been reset.

I tend to keep to 60MPH. I’m really impressed with mine.

It is doing it more often now so I will be calling the local dealer to see if they can provide a software update. Not sure if I will be charged for this though, I expect so. It’s a known problem as there’s a TPI (Technical Product Information) update to rectify it; see Alan_p71’s post - bottom of p...

No its a 1.0tsi 115bhp DSG

I average 58MPG to a tank. I do mainly motorway driving for my work commute. That's 47 miles round trip. Even though it has drop off a bit now it's gone cold.

Mine does it now and then.

I've booked our Polo in to the nearest VW dealer in December for it's 1st MOT plus an "Annual Service". The dash currently displays the usual confusing double message - "Inspection in 15400 mi or 46 days" + "Oil change service in 4700 mi or 46 days" When will they lear...

What is the matter with the Mk8 Golf? I was thinking about trading in the Polo for one?
