Looking back, If I had done more homework and really understood all the potential issues with the 2010 model DSG and reading about the issues some people are having with the APR tunes on DSG's, I would have gone with a manual even though at times it would really suck driving it in all the stop and go traffic in my daily commute.

With that said, I had a mechatronics failure while the car was under warranty and there have been zero issues since. Its a fantastic transmission otherwise, but it has me seriously re-thinking getter a stage 1 or 2 tune. I just don't want to trigger some failure that puts me out the $6-$7K a transmission job would run me, not including the tune.
