I've been reading the generally positive if you read between the lines (I know it's diesel and automatic, of course it's not a track day car) but occasionally concerning long term report of their 140PS DSG Leon.

Now, if you read the bit about the DSG, on what basis would you say it's 'not as good a s a manual' (in DIY mode) and 'not as good as a proper auto' in Auto mode? In my opinion it's better than both in the short time I have driven one.
However, the bit about how it slipping the clutch when it moves off, what do we think about that, and is there anything we can do when driving to make sure we are treating the gearbox as best we can? Although my car will be new with a warranty I don't want to have clutch problems with it caused by it slipping or me balancing on it or anything.
