      What? This is so educative. Can't get better. If I had to choose between this garage style and the other reviews, it's this garage style every time, without even thinking about it. A mix of both is even better.

    • @ianmaranya4073
      @ianmaranya4073 Před 3 měsíci

      This garage reviews are way better than the other car reviews.this one is focusing on what really matters in a car as opposed to the other one which is more on looks,speed and non essentials such as legroom and all that

    I actually commented on the last video asking for this specific video🥳💯Personally I feel that DCT transmissions are unnecessary in regular passenger cars. The complications that come with them are not worth the gains you get in daily use especially because a well calibrated ZF can be just as good....a good example being the ZF boxes in BMWs. I think in performance vehicle eg M-cars, RS/S-audis, AMGs etc it makes sense to have a DCT but for an everyday passenger car you don't really need it....I suppose maybe you could argue fuel economy but even a ZF can perform just as well no❔️That being said I do actually like DCT boxes cuz when they work they are really good. Moral of the story manufactures should build them better.

      Having owned one in an Audi for 5 years I would definitely say it’s a joy to have in a daily car, great at both low and high speeds, beautiful smooth shifts, good consumption in a 2l engine, oil change every 60k and I’ve done it twice, would definitely have it again.

    • @abdul-kabiralegbe5660
      @abdul-kabiralegbe5660 Před 3 měsíci

      For a DSG gearbox, there are separate clutches, shafts, shift forks, solenoids for the even gears (2, 4, 6) and the odd gears (1, 3, 5). If your gearbox is a DSG, then from your complaints about the even gears not working, I think your problem could be either the even clutch and/or the actuator for the even gears. Your problem is probably mechanical.
      Hope this helps.

    • @junioralvo1609
      @junioralvo1609 Před 3 měsíci +1

      Yeah coz mine had no odd numbers, I tried to change it with another used clutch but didn't work. But when I imported a new clutch it worked really well, no complications ever since

    Ati a german part on a german machine, the part will be more expensive than a japanese car, but will last longer before replacement, yes it will likely be more expensive, but it won't last longer than the japanese vehicles because the more engineered a vehicle is, the more it is likely to go wrong.
