About time, now if they could find a good Diesel in their SD they might have something
Basicaly it would be like the DSG trans in my Jetta TDI. It really is a nice transmission. My 06 Jetta has wet discs and the new 09 have dry discs. I still cant help but to feel that a wet disc will last way longer then a dry disc.
