1.5 TSI DSG 2025 MY Scala, slightly jerks forward when I stop, this is especially noticeable in stop start traffic, I don't use the start stop system, is this normal behaviour or should I get it checked?

What do you mean it jerks forward?

Are you possibly slightly releasing the brake pressure?

If you are not using the Stop/Start (that is you turned it off) are you moving the car into N when you come to a stop?

Lack of brake pressure might cause a partial engagement of the clutch pack if you remain in D. If Stop/Start is turned off then you may get premature wear of the clutch pack if you don't move to N.

Thank you for your reply it was simply me not depressing the brake enough as it took a bit of getting used to from my old Rapid.

Yes, important to make it clear to the electronics you are not wishing to move. Firm pressure on the brake keeps the clutches disengaged. Difficult if you spent years perfecting the jerk free stop in a manual!

Not relevant really,

Stop / Start disabled. But do you have 'Autohold' enabled.

So once stopped and brake pedal pressed 'Autohold' can hold the car with the brakes with still in D or S?

The car has hill hold assist only.

The conditions for hill hold assist require the car to be on at least a 5% slope.

Hill hold assist "works" for about 2 seconds allowing time for you to move your foot from the brake to the accelerator.

You'll note the car uses a conventional manual handbrake unlike other similar models in the VAG line-up.
