Those DSG gearboxes are set to minimum emission values and the lowest possible engine speeds. They often shift too fast and choppy. There are VAG specialists (tuning-scene) who adapt the software of these gearboxes so that they shift a bit later and more smoothly. This is said to extend life. However, the consumption does not improve.
