Sure is. My wife got her new 162tsi this week. The launch control behaves very differently to her old series 1 tiggy. The old car was brutal with the way it launched under launch control and shifted to the point where I would cringe waiting for something to snap every time (It didn't after 5 years of abuse). The new car is much more progressive with clutch engagement however this time it is to the point where I am thinking whether it is bad for the DSG clutch.
