GTI2007 said:According to the information I saw off the European GTI the rpm for 100 km/h or 62 mph are for the DSG:
3rd @ 5000 rpm
4th @ 3600 rpm
5th @ 2800 rpm
6th @ 2400 rpm
and for the 6MT:
3rd @ 4800 rpm
4th @ 3600 rpm
5th @ 2800 rpm
6th @ 2400 rpm

I'm going to buy my GTI Monday or Tuesday. I was wondering, is it noisy on the highway? Do you hear the engine too much at 2400 RPM to enjoy long-distance cruising? What about wind noise?
Thanks.

1'st: 64km/h
2'nd: 106km/h
3'rd: 145km/h
4'th: 189km/h
5'th: 235km/h
6'th: 295km/h and with a special tuning program 340+km/h
I did try vmax in gear 1 to 4 and it's correct :biggrin:
sniperviperman said:well uhmm.. I only use it to eat up the guy next to me waiting at the red light. if you reff all the way to 64km/h in 1'st gear and then SLAM it in 2'nd, the speedometer jumps from 64 to 85 in an instand. your front tires squeek, your back tires make a bang and you feel the back dropped to the ground. This trick can only be done with a manual gearbox, not with the DSG. you actualy hear a 'sonic' boom inside your car, b'cause it sounds like it, when switching gear to 2'nd. doing this also manage you to do 0-100 km/h in 6 seconds flat.. and no, my car is not tuned. try it yourself.
