I think it sounds awesome… makes a very similar sound as my truck at the shift points.
So the farts are the DSG shifting?
AWD goodness! Light weight system too.
it’s the wastegate opening and closing super fast because of the insanely fast shifts.
the base model is FWD…so I’m guessing this is based on a FWD set up… (transverse mounted motor) with a 60-40 split or something…which will make it push and not oversteer
I could be wrong though.
the latest haldex versions are much more active than the early ones:
A large complaint about the old system was its lagging response time. LSC versions 3.0 and earlier used a built-in pump to create hydraulic pressure on the clutch pack to increase the torque drive to the rear wheels. While efforts were made on Haldex’s part to create preemptive torque by adding a check valve and feeder pump to provide some instant pressure when triggered by wheel slippage, it was still limited in capacity. That is why for version 4.0 Haldex made an effort to improve response time by eliminating the hydraulic pump built in to the LSC, which also reduced its overall packaging size. Instead they have added a proportional pressure release valve with an accumulator that is kept filled by a detached feeder pump. This provides more instant response by holding the valve open to limit the torque drive to the rear wheels and keeping the hydraulic fluid flowing through the system. That way when rear torque is demanded, the valve closes and hydraulic pressure is already there
LOL you wouldn’t catch me dead in the darting car.
darting?
probably meant farting.
DSG sounds so incredibly gay. i don’t care how siqqq fast it shifts. it could shift 4000 times faster than i can and i still wouldn’t want it.
this whole car sounds like shit
I will be buying one of these. (CLA 45amG)
Not only is theblue a socialist, he’s a grammar nazi to boot. It’s clear as day what was meant. Ever hear of autocorrect?
that’s not grammar, that’s spelling.
Does it only rev to 3k? I was waiting for a WOT pass down the strait but nothing.
The video was super lame. I like the concept but the car sounds horribad.
Is that why you said if you had the money you’d buy the MK5 GTI DSG on here that’s for sale?
13k nicely modded car vs a 60k ? Mercedes. Yea there’s a tradeoff. Ill deal with the farting noise. It’s not like its a new gtI
The turbo on a gti doesnt sound like this , I said this WHOLE car sounds like shit . Not just the farting shifts
