    This is an easy test goes as follows:

    Pop it in Sport

    ESP OFF

    Left Foot on Brake

    Floor the gas

    If it holds at 3000 rpm - launch control working

    If it wont rev past 2000rpm - launch control not activated

    i wouldnt advise using it too often, your clutches will cry

    Sitting at a red light holding 3000rpm until the lights change - you'll look a right ******.

    Answer: wear a balaclava while doing it.

    I was about to ask exactly the same question - well a variant of it anyway.

    I have a 1.4TSI(122) with the 7 speed DSG (in a Dec 08 Golf Plus) when I ordered it April last year I asked the salesmen about Launch Control (LC) and he said it would come with it.

    However I am now told (by local VW dealer) that the 7 speed dry clutch DSG does not have LC - is this true ? - dose anyone here have a 7 speed dry clutch DSG with LC ?
