The actual reason of DSG failing in India on previous days because of VW and Skoda cars were producing more torque than official claim , that's why the DSG(DQ250) especially of their Diesel vehicles weren't able to handle that extra Torque Rush hence they over-heated and sometimes they fails . I'm damn sure that today's 1.5 TSI is also producing more power than claimed ones , that's why it's beating new Verna Turbo even with less Power/weight ratio .

Tata's DCA?

VW ki sena as you guys say are just car automobile lovers like you both gagan and vikas. They are not irrational and neither stupid as you highlight them to be. They love their cars as much as any other car Enthusiast does. If you observe them with open mind, they do acknowledge if other cars are better performer than their own brands as well. Coming to the drag race, Slavia vs Verna '23 which was the elephant in the room. The drag in your channel showed verna faster than Slavia which is totally cool considering 10 more bhps. But also, those so called tagged "VW sena" by you, also did a drag between virtus and verna and results were different slightly where Virtus stays ahead for the most part and Verna very gently surpasses between 120-140 and then virtus again overtakes verna beyond 140 kmph. Conclusion? Both the cars are almost equal when it comes to Performance. A lot of it depends on the driver, launch styles in the drag race, tyres, fuel type and other car specific factors. In real life, a regular common man won't even feel much difference between the two because drag race koi nahi karta real life conditions and lifestyle mein. I respect you both as automobile journalists but it is VERY SAD, to see people fighting and tagging each other with certain names like "VW ki sena" and what not. Please stop doing that. VW does make great cars, no doubts. Niggles have been existent, yes, mostly in the VW 2.0 initial manufactured cars which VW should have checked before rolling out the cars and that has been a pain in the rear for a lot of people, BUT, these have also been RECTIFIED now. A company which starts listening, if not sooner but later, is better than a company which does not take any action at all. I think VW is trying to be a better brand today than it was. Support these brands which are trying to bring superior driving quality and experience. And if they are lacking and being faulty in some aspects (like any other car brand), give them feedback and help them give us even better experiences. But, STOP THESE TAGGING OF NAMES LIKE "VW KI SENA". VW does make great cars and Infact superior in a lot of ways than Koreans. That's a truth. FACT: Before you tag me as another "VW Fanboy". I had owned a suzuki, 2 Hyundais back to back in my family. Amazing cars I must say. I shifted to VW in 2018 with 2 VWs in my fleet and my experience has been better in every way of ownership and driving than the Hyundais and Suzukis. I am not biased towards any brand, but, judging on the basis of factual experience, Germans have an edge. Although I totally agree, localisation has led to cost cuttings in some areas which aren't that bad either. YOU BOTH ARE GOOD JOURNALISTS. PLEASE DON'T TARNISH YOUR IMAGE. STOP SHAMING, TAGGING OR BEING BAISED AND BEING TOO CRITICAL ABOUT ONE BRAND IN PARTICULAR. Bring back the harmony! Everyone out there is a car enthusiast, esp, your target audience. If people like Hyundais, it is for their strengths, if people like VW's, it is for their strengths. Hope to see these fights and shaming and tagging end. Rivalry is exciting and good. But, tagging people who are mere car enthusiasts like you, it's NOT DONE!

Bro vw claimed power figures are on wheels so definitely it makes more than 150bhp on crank whereas hyundai claims power figures based on crank that’s why they always show less power on dyno test but here the reason for dsg failure is more torque than 250nm at initial rpms but in petrol engines they made sure to that torque won’t be more than 250nm and that why they have given initial lag in new dsg so basically I don’t think we have to worry about dsg failures in 2.0 cars

The earlier DSG DQ200 failures were due to short circuits in the Mechatronics due to using synthetic gear oil. They have since switched to mineral oil and failures have also reduced significantly. Premature clutch failure is mostly due to frequent clutch engagement in start-stop traffic. Like mentioned in the video, switch to Neutral during stops + switch to manual mode (hold onto 1st gear) in creeping traffic. My Vento TDI DSG started showing lethargic gear shifting with only about 35K on the odo (90% city traffic). I got the gearbox oil and Mechatronics fluid changed (genuine VW fluids only) at an independent garage and voila, the shifts have become smooth all over again and D3-D2 jerking is almost gone as well. Don’t believe in the “sealed-for-life” transmission oil BS.

Simple baat hai, DCT is DCT. Best performance with lower reliability. If someone can’t afford to get it replaced out of warranty by paying 1-1.5L, better buy AMT/CVT/TC or even manual cars. But don’t expect that kind of performance. Performance and the pleasure of driving always comes at a cost.

What Gagan said regarding the slowness of engagement in the DCTs is exactly what Hyundai and Kia did via the software update. At the same time, actuator ya something was also replaced for the owners whose cars got stucked in ODD/EVEN gears. My honest review, the feels of the early days DCT days got changed due to this update. The updated DCTs felt more like a refined AT. :(

With the DQ200 the problem was being faced due to TDI generating more than 250 nm of torque...... As of now VW has provided max torque of 250 nm and have made necessary changes in it making it less prone to such failures. Since 3 years there are almost 0 issues faced regarding the DSG+TSI combination. Although I do agree the DSG/DCT/DCA (Tata) all these are not much suitable for high traffic areas (Mumbai, Banglore, Delhi) so if anyone is getting it there either get a manual or get a warranty against it..... Btw at 14:47 when u said bura lag jayega it's true bcoz VW is the pioneer of DSG and DCT is being made from reverse engineering 🙂🙂🙂 Ye sab apko pata hain na ???

Excellent video team. Would you recommend buying a used octavia MK3 with the DSG issues you highlighted?

What about Tata altroz dca .? How good are they ..with bs6 phase 2 engine..

The problem which auto companies do not want to admit is that the materials to construct proper DCT doesn't exist yet. You need a steel which has very low thermal expansion coefficient, very high shear modulus, very high shear strength, very high surface hardness. Plus in order to make the predictive shift work well, you need very good ambient sensing (radar+camera+IR) plus very intelligent algorithm optimised for the user as well as traffic condition. These are contradictory requirements.

While driving AT [TC] in traffic is it safe to put in N mode when traffic is not moving

With DSG I too faced similar problem which I managed with changing my driving pattern. The main issue which I faced is with lower gears, where they get confused between 1st and 2nd. Here I adopted to go for manual mode. Also I always preferred to go for neutral when on stops and signals. DSG is a fun to drive just we need to adjust to them.

Torque converter is a jack of all trades. But in general each transmission needs some middle ground - Toyota's torque converters with a lock-up clutch, Honda's CVTs with a launch gear and now VW's DCT with slower shifts.

Yes that’s exactly what you should be doing. No need to shift to N. When the car is stationary and brake pedal is fully pressed both the clutches are disengaged and there should be no heating issue. While driving slowly if you are riding the brake , that’s when the clutch heats up. So in stop and go traffic, try to maintain some distance from the front car and in 1st gear let go of the brake completely to move forward and then completely press down the brake when you need to stop, the minimum time u ride the brake in slow speed the cooler your clutches will be.

What about Tata's DCA? Its a mildly modified DCT I think.

does anyone have KIA Sonet DCT ? would you please share your experience 🙏

Need separate topic on ECVT currently used in strong hybrid cars like Hyryder etc

I have jetta with dq250. Done 2lakh kms. No issues at all. Just change dsg oil after every 70k km. And keep at N if stopping for more than 20 sec.

Grand Vitara AT has which your of automatic transmission? Thanks for this really good podcast! Fantastic

Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara gets a 6-speed torque converter (TC) automatic gearbox.

We need full detail video on all transmission from both of you❤

Doing Excellent job Guys….. u r truly guiding about the misconceptions ……… Thanks and keep the Spirits Up 🌹

Would like to know whether Kia has any future plans of introducing an automatic IVT transmission in any of their Sonet variants like HTK, HTK+ or HTX or HTX+? like they have in Seltos HTX. (Am aware that their GTX transmission is available in both Sonet and Seltos) Please revert at the earliest. Thanks in advance!!

Did you buy , if yes faced any problems?

amt dct same ho jaeynge...not possible....dct even though slowed down it never losses power while shifting gear traffic signal keep in N or P, STOP-GO traffic like bangalore keep in manual, be careful in 3rd gear, 3-2 switch vw dsg gets confused it gives huge jerk, so dont keep it confused in 3rd-2nd switch scenario

Great podcast! Loved it! I have two cars with DSG- Polo GT TSI and the Octavia 2.0L Petrol (Dec 2022). One thing I would like to point out- when the car is stopped in D, the computer disengages the clutch and it causes no harm to the transmission. However, I put the transmission in N when stopped. But the research that I have done suggests that there is no harm caused to the transmission when in D and stopped say at a traffic light. One can see that the RPM drops to about 700 when the brake is applied and car is stopped. Also the 'Auto hold function' which applies the brakes when the car is stopped works only in the D mode. DSG is a fantastic gear box and I think much superior to the DCT of the Koreans.

Koi nahi bata sakta. Prefer Polo TSI 1.0 post 2020 edition. It comes with Torque Converter gearbox which is bulletproof in reliability.

Can you also make a video on DPF. BS6 Diesel owners are having these kind of issues, especially TATA.

Thank you, Mr Yogi & Mr. Gagan for such an informative podcast. You have very nicely covered the DSG/DCT problems on Volkswagan, Hyundai & other brands. But lately Tata Motors have also developed their own DCT. Have any owners of these vehicles faced similar issues? Has it come to your notice?

Tata did not develop their own dct, they purchased one from a foreign brand

Due to which manuals are the best!

My brother has 1.4 Turbo Creta 2020 Model.He has never faced any issue , even on long trips of more than 2500Kms

Buying i20 n line next week now so so so confused should i go with hyundai dct gearbox now ???
