HI, up till now i had manual Fabia and then TDI SuperB with DSG 6

 

Is there a way to make the DSG7 not up shifting gears like crazy? regardless of the speed? once it feels stable speed it up the gear.

We are not driving much in the City but, it still very annoying that i am driving in the parking lot at 3rd gear, 20-5kmh, or driving at 5th gear while doing 40 and the motor is struggling to keep up with gear, feels like placing 5th gear in a 5 gear box doing 50, and then you just gives a bit of push it drops to 3rd gear.

 

feels like the car is set up to build speed slowly on the highway to aim for economy.

is there a way to control it? other than putting it in manual mode?

Maybe setting driving mode?  (which I can't find) where is it ?  

Maybe a remap?
 

Appreciate your responses

 

thank you

Sport mode

If you put it into D and then push down again it will go into S, sometimes people don't realise and put it S by accident.

@eyalasd  What engine a 1.0tsi or a 1.5 tsi?    So what power.

It is engineered to have it getting the best economy, and it will get out of 1st gear qr a low speed. 

There are 7 gears to go through.

 

S will hold the gears longer, to a higher RPM before changing up

Sorry it is the 1.0

It is not going to perform like a 150ps 1.5 TSI ACT then. You have what you have as far as power and the engine management / mapping  has to get the economy it can.  A Scala is heavier than a Fabia with the same power so might just feel a little different.  Sam's 1 0tsi and DQ200 though. 

I am a new scala DSG  owner and I quite like the system.  However, I quite regularly end up in S mode without realising it and have to switch manually back to D .
