ACC works well with a manual gearbox, you just don't get the full benefits. It will almost follow to stop, you just need to change down as you slow and it will not go to a stop. Other than that and changing gear it works the same. I have the same issue with manual and DSG in that when pulling out to overtake on a motorway the pick up is quite slow if you have lost speed, even in sport the DSG accelerates quite slowly, it also seems to pause before picking up speed. I find in both the manual and DSG I need to push the accelerator to get the car to move.

I had the issue with the fuel consumption data resetting on a 2017 2.0 SE technology, it happened frequently during the time I had the car. Never really bothered me as it was a company car so I never got it looked at. I didn't have VC on that but will have on my new one when it arrives

I have been driving a manual 2.0 150 Superb SE Technology for the last 3 years up until Christmas. Currently I have a temporary VW Passat 1.6 diesel SE business DSG (7 speed). I have a 2.0 150 DSG Superb SE Technology on order, due sometime in the next month or two. This is the longest I have driven a DSG for and overall I’m enjoying the experience, a bit of a learning curve with the snow and ice recently but not too bad. My question is how do the Skoda and VW systems compare? I appreciate they are the same gearbox but does they way they drive differ in the the Superb and Passat? The one comment I have heard is the the DSG in the Superb can be jerky in traffic. I don’t know if this is a common DSG annoyance or particular to the Superb. I haven’t found the Passat too bad. I was initially concerned with pulling away from busy junctions and roundabouts but have found knocking the DSG into sport really helps, is this the same ? Thanks in advance

The blind spot detection is standard on the SE Tech. (Or was when I placed the order for my company car on 23rd December). Travel assist has the Virtual cockpit, traffic sign recognition, predictive adaptive cruise control, adaptive lane assist and traffic jam assist I considered this pack as I wanted the VC and traffic sign recognition but as I wasn't bothered about the rest couldn't justify the cost so I just went for VC in the end I think traffic jam assist is for DSG only Not sure about the other pack, could be area view

You can change the LED's and have a different colour, that is easy to do. I did it in my company car so I had blue light rather than white
