vrs 4x4 dsg in the snow?

The one reservation I had was not the Haldex but the DSG

I have spent most of my driving life feathering the clutch to get things moving in the snow and ice and using the clutch to 'rock' machines out of a hole in the mud. I have not seen much of either with the DSG but I cant help thinking it will not give you the same control.

Unfortunately the higher powered engines are generally available with DSG only so you tend to get neither or both. That said I have no issues with the DSG so far, seems best of both worlds to me.

The manual actually describes how to rock a car loose with DSG. I havent tried it( havent been necessary) so I dont how it works in real life.

But I have found that sportmode is nice when the conditions are bad and speed is low(in driveways and such). You want to keep them revs up and disable anti spin.
