Just purchased a used 2017 GTI Autobahn (includes DSG, PP and DCC). I bought it for a DD but will have to try it for autocross . I know the 2nd gear is much shorter than Manual, but wondered if S mode or Manual mode would give me more shifting control. Does manual mode hold gear till redline then shift? And what RPM will it allow me to quickly downshift from 3rd to 2nd on a fast course? I would guess that Sport mode for DCC would be best, or are there any suggested settings for custom? And is holding down the traction button for appx 10 sec the mode with the least nannies? I have owned 3 early Sciroccos, 2 16V Sciroccos, 2 VR6 Corrados, and a 2011 GTI. Jen Wong was gracious enough to let me co drive his well prepped GTI in Detroit a while back, and it was then that I knew I would purchase a Mk7 at some point.
Thx for any suggestions...
