I thought I would tack on here... Have a Fiesta as a rental, with what I presume is the same DSG. It's awful. If I didn't have a sense of what is mechanically going on with the car, it would be terrifying. Frequently it seems to be malfunctioning, when it reality it's just not a good design. Two days in the hills of San Francisco has been PLENTY. It's pretty much never any fun around here. The only way it's even livable is with the hill start assist turned on - otherwise, it's borderline dangerous by virtue of its unpredictability! This is an otherwise pretty nice car (comfortable, good handling, fuel economy, visibility, fit & finish), but living with the DSG would be impossible, especially around here.
