    This is from the UK scirooco forum Scirocco Central Scirocco Central • View topic - Launch control on 1.4TSI DSG?

    Pull up at lights, stop line etc, put left foot on brake pedal, put car into S, disengage traction control then with your right foot plant the accelarator. the revs should rise to around 3000 rpm whilst you have both brake and throttle pressed. When you are reaqy to go, just release the brake and away you go. You may need to modulate the throttle to avoid wheelspin, less of an issue in the 1.4 I would guess, the 2.0 litre will light the tyres up easily if you do this and do not feather the throttle accordingly.

    Alternatively...
    Foot on brake > turn off TC > Shift into Sport or Manual > Hit throttle > release brake and hold on tight....

    You have to hold the TC button down until you hear the bell chime
    Press TC and hold it down in one motion not 2 or it wont go to launch
    I use Sports mode as it can be a handful and you dont have to worry about the shift changes.
