I was just looking through a couple modules on my car, and central conv, byte 17, bit 2 is checked off (displayed as "0 = auto / 1 = manual").
Now I'm not an expert, but since my gearshift only moves straight up and down, and I can only seem to find 2 pedals on the floor, I would think this shouldn't be checked off. The long coding helper displays byte 17 as "FC". I opened a scan I did just after buying the car last year, and it was the same.
Just wondering if anyone out there can see if their dsg shows the same thing or not.
Also, while I'm on the dsg subject, I notice it is terrible at coasting.. seems to downshift and engage the clutch in every gear as it decelerates. My drive is mostly hwy, so lately I've been bumping up to neutral coming towards a red light, and rev match it to come back into drive if the light goes green before I reach it. No lurch or anything doing so, but I just thought I'd ask if this is a terrible idea, as my old tdi, and all my cars before it were manual.
