Was a normal day of driving, car was warming up. I live in Florida so it warms up pretty quickly. I was pulling out onto 4th street when I gave the car a lot of gas, but the transmission did nothing. It just revved up and then after about 1 or 2 seconds, the transmission engaged and the car began to slowly accelerate. After this 1-3 second delay, the car was driving like normal. But the initial hesitation almost caused me to be rear ended because I was pulling into traffic. My dsg has no fault codes, yet it hesitates at times and sometimes scares me. My other complaint has to do with it hesitating and jerking in reverse. It has almost caused me to back into stuff. Reverse is very inconsistent. My final complaint is in regard to the fuel pump system. The fuel pump uses a cam follower. These cam followers wear out, and can cause failure of the high pressure fuel pump system. My fuel pump failed under warranty and was replaced. Less than 10,000 miles later I inspected my new pump and follower and found excessive wear on the face of the cam follower. This is unheard of with a car like this. When the cam follower fails, the fuel system fails - how can VW/Audi manufacture something this unreliable.
