    VCDS: AWD setting, what do you have?

    It's possible it's just a bad translation from a german word which actually refers to the operating mode of the haldex i.e comfort, standard or sport for example It's worth somebody trying the different modes and launching the car and posting

    Launch without launch control

    you can build some amount of revs in the dsg/s-tronics because it wont engage the clutch unless you apply throttle so it doesn't stall as your trying to setoff... just thought it was worth pointing out. I've never had a problem with my DSG when mashing the throttle from a standing start, it...

    Launch without launch control
