Hello,
Has anyone purchased an FR with DSG? I found on web that with FR trim DSG cars come standard with paddle shifters on the wheel. I could not find this option with SE, and dealer told me only MK7 Golf offers them in mid-spec. Since no DSG FR is imported to our country, I had to settle with less FUN while shifting.
I asked the dealer whether they could be fitted at the service as spare parts, they told me to contact SEAT directly. I contacted SEAT, they told me to wait that the distributor will contact me. Distributer contacted me that such an option is not possible.
Since almost all parts on FR and SE trim are literally same and with the shared parts strategy, it just didnt make sense to me that 2 small buttons could not be fitted to my wheel. I believe the neccessay sockets and mounting place is already there sitting empty on my wheel. I also found a company who installs aftermarket paddle shifters to VW group cars, but I'm worried about my warranty, so that is not an option for me.
Can anyone direct me in the right way, or know someone from SEAT that can help me, please?
Thank you
