    I guess my cars didn't get the memo. My A3 is equipped with DSG and has 171k miles. Never had a single issue.
    My MK7 GTI (also DSG) has 107k miles and hasn't had a single issue transmission wise either. Hell, my GTI is big turbo, E85, FBO and tracked on weekends. 😂
    It's cool that you prefer manual and I have owned both auto and manual vehicles. However, it's not 1985 anymore and modern autos are far better than they have ever been. The DSG was so amazing in my A3, I opted for DSG in my Golf as well. Manual can be fun at times but it's a highly overrated experience.

    Don't forget it also keep people off the phone and it's a good anti theft since there's a lot of people that don't know how to even start it lol much less drive manual ... I just recently got a 20,000 miles 2018 mk 6.5 wolfensburg edition and I got some plans

    Everything you said about taking care of a manual transmission goes to same with automatic. If you take care of it, it will last. My first car was a 98 Ford Expedition I got from my parents. They never did and I never had to rebuild or replace the automatic transmission. Hell we rarely changed the fluid and that truck had 5 round trips to Mexico and back to Illinois. Only benefit I got from this video is the starter problems.

      It won’t last as long as a manual and that’s a fact. No matter how much you take care of it and change the fluid. Torque converter will go, clutch packs will go.

    What you say is correct, however, the fact is that the manual transmission is dying out, and this is making them harder to find. Just 41 out of the 327 new car models sold in the United States in 2020, or 13%, are offered with a manual transmission, according to data from Edmunds. So eventually, the manual transmission will be redundant. Now, just as rear wheel drive cars are better than front wheel drive cars, why not make a video on why they are better yet becoming redundant also. We can also debate as to why we shouldn't modify cars so they save us money in the long-run through premature mechanical fatigue and failure. People should buy and do whatever they feel comfortable with.

      I like what you’re saying, eventually manual transmissions will die out yes. But I’m hoping to keep the trend and my beliefs going for as long as I can. If I’m leasing a car for a couple years, I wouldn’t care as much. If I’m in it for the long haul, I’d get a manual still.

    You own a Volkswagen what about a car with a DSG? They shift faster than a manual
