Very often the car in front of me is braking lightly and I do noit need to with the DCT.
Thank you for sharing Jeff.

If you apply heavy brake at stop, then release the brake, the PDK will act as you describe for the DCT.

So, as I understand what you describe, the difference between the DCT and PDK is that the PDK requires a hard brake pulse, while the DCT does it automatically when the vehicle comes to a stop.

Then again, what I describe for the PDK is what I know to be true while in 'automatic' mode. Per my above post to Doughboy, I am still figuring out the 'manual' mode nuances.

Please correct me if I am mistaken in my understanding of your comments.
