I've got some driving time in a friend's new Audi A3 1.9 TDI with DSG .
It didn't seem to shift that much more - but it surely shifts fast
His mileage is a whole lot worse than with his previous (much lighter) A3 though.
Both cars are (were) driven in a similar way, without paying much attention to saving gas.
That worked well and effortlessly in the old manual 1.9 TDI, but doesn't work in the new A3 with DSG.
