    Yeah neutral caps the revs to 4000rpm - brake on or off. Same story for the DSG models

    Good topic, however I was informed of this the first day I got my car. Apologies for not replying any sooner!

    Its quite normal and its advised that you keep your foot on the brake from ignition until the revs go down to "warmed" (800 RPM).

    Don't take my word for it, Volkswagen North Shore advised me its quite safe!
