Mate I've driven both a number of times and there is no doubt the ZF a far better box. Runs beautifully in auto mode, makes the 4 speeder look as aging as it is.

I just hate it's "manual mode". Seriously it just does what it wants and that really annoyed me! ha . Just constantly decides what it wants to do, leave at high revs in 3rd then sure enough, 4th it is........

The DSG in mine has overidden once in over a year.....as I was redlining it and it said "enough".....ha. Both pull up to a stop themselves but that's ok as actually ideal.
