My previous daily driver was a Jetta TDI with a 5-speed manual gearbox. I found that trying to invoke DFCO was a waste of time. But coasting in neutral had very good results. Part of that was because of the diesel engine; they can run super-lean at idle. And I could coast a lot further in neutral than I could in gear.
