Just tried out the launch control on my 2013 GLI DSG. Pretty neat.
1. Hold brake pedal while stopped.
2. Disengage traction control.
3. Shift into "S"
4. Hold gas pedal down.
5. Release Brake Pedal.
Works seamlessly every time. I wonder what will happen with a tune?

No need to be jelly. I believe there are tunes that can add that (REVO).

The intent of my post was to inform the community on how to attain launch control on their capable cars.

I hope you've already past your break-in period and drove easy during it. Otherwise enjoy burning oil once you hit the higher mileages.

600 miles of easy driving. Vary the RPM's but don't dog it or redline it. Originally Posted by BetterDays
