Baal Supersonic February 6, 2014 Share February 6, 2014 Actually 7dsg is dry right? Then they said using mineral oil helps solve the prob. anyone knows what they meant by this? So the dry 7dsg becomes wet in this case or? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the dry 7dsg becomes wet in this case or? I read that dry simply means less oil ?

The new new jetta also got GB problem? serious??..... i have never driven a jetta before my recent trip to states... i rented a 2.5L jetta 2mths ago at LA, damn regretted big time... not sure was it due the milleage was "high" (~33K miles) or it was an accident car before, when i step on the gas and pick up speed, the engine sound and steering feel was not good.... kind of not as firm on the road as i hope for.. a bid floating sensation...... at 85mi/h, i dare not go higher already and have to slow down to 65mi/h limit... but i have no problem even with ford focus(2L) hitting 100mi/h......so, if im given a free car from lucky draw, i will pick a ford focus then a vw jetta....

In the US usually I rented Japanese cars or American brands. as long as it does not have a stick that can wriggle up, down, left, right and centre, avoid it. If tats the case I think can forget about considering VW models for my next purchase liao. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kangadrool Supersonic May 13, 2014 Share May 13, 2014 LOL, probably suspension is tuned on the soft side for North America market and reckon the rear suspension is torsion beam instead of independent multilink. serious??..... i have never driven a jetta before my recent trip to states... i rented a 2.5L jetta 2mths ago at LA, damn regretted big time... not sure was it due the milleage was "high" (~33K miles) or it was an accident car before, when i step on the gas and pick up speed, the engine sound and steering feel was not good.... kind of not as firm on the road as i hope for.. a bid floating sensation...... at 85mi/h, i dare not go higher already and have to slow down to 65mi/h limit... but i have no problem even with ford focus(2L) hitting 100mi/h......so, if im given a free car from lucky draw, i will pick a ford focus then a vw jetta....
