Car went in for a service yesterday. Uneventful, but the guys at Rockdale Skoda are helpful and friendly.
Anyway, the DSG seems to shift more softly in D, but when shifting to S, it used to go straight into the sports mode gear. ie, if I was cruising in D at 70km/h, shifting to S would put me into S2. Now, it will stay in S6, and then S4, then the moment I give it more throttle, it would hit S2.
Manual appears to be more aggressive also. That I don't mind.

I'm actually pretty happy with my DSG - not sure I want it updated
(I would certainly like to be advised before they flash it)
I'm only at 16k as yet

Are these updates only available from dealers? Can euro specialists have access to these updates? I've got a DSG7 so I'm not even sure if this will apply to me.
Volkswagen Fanatic
probably doesn't apply to you as we all have the DQ250 transmission.
not sure about software/firmware availability, but perhaps you need to take a trip to a skoda or vw dealer?

I agree!
DSG boxes "learn" your driving style, and I worry that any updates would revert all that back to standard again....
