Does anyone have the gear ratios for 1st, 2nd & 3rd gear for the Leon range? I don't mind how they're presented the actual ratio & final drive ratio(s), mph or km/h per 1000rpm, etc.

I'm just trying to make up some comparisons & missing those gears, mainly 3rd, is causing some issues.
 
Unfortunately the brochure doesn't give quite enough information to be certain of the gear ratios. Take the 1.2 TSI DSG. We have 3 final drive ratios: 3.227, 4.176 & 4.438. Now 5th through 7th must be using 3.227 FD & 4th the 4.438 FD ratio if we believe the mph/1000rpm table.

The bottom 3 gears however we can't place via other data. There are 2 sensible ways to arrange the FD ratio usage -
1st 4.176, 2nd 4.438, 3rd 4.176
1st 4.176, 2nd 4.176, 3rd 4.438
Without further information it's hard to decide which is the correct configuration as both give sensible ratios & ratio jumps when steeping through the gearbox.
 
Thats interesting you should mention that....I have issues sometimes from 2nd to 3rd, usually if your giving it a little bit of stick but sometimes it does it even when your just plodding along! Just seems to get a little 'stuck' or very notchy and makes a little bit of a noise...Keep meaning to take it to the dealer to be honest!
