Running in an automatic diesel ?
You have given/displayed an excelllent answer (RUNNING IN A DIESEL) to the Question, "What's the best way to run-in a diesel engine" but your answer only refers to a manual transmission. Can you please give answer this for an automatic diesel, e.g. a GOLF Match 2.0 TDi DSG?

Use the manual selector to hold it in the gears so you can achieve the revs suggested.

Comfortable and quiet on the move, enjoyable to drive. Nicely trimmed with great attention to detail. 1.4 TSI sweeter to drive than a diesel.
