Default pdk noises

do you hear drivetrain noises in your pdk? grinds on slow shifting… clicks? these all seem normal but will this affect the pdk's longetivity? what are normal pdk noises? sharing…
i got this short grinding noise when shifting on slow move… a few clicks…quiet when running and on the pedal…..

The only issue I had was occasional lumpy gear changes, almost eliminated after software upgrade.

Bijan, you are so absolutely right with that pdk upgrade. The lumpy gear shift was all but eliminated by that upgrade. Havent tried it on the sport downshift yet to hear the blips. Will do that soon.

No noises here...sometimes you can hear the PDK clunk down shifting when gently rolling 2 a stop. This is just the mechanicals in the transmission moving. the 2 PDK cars I've owned did this and other PDK cars I've driven did this.

Again...Slick I've never seen someone with more problems with a car in my life. Seriously you have a new problem every few weeks....you really need to get out of this car that has so many problems.

No noises noticed. Maybe slicky rick is very observant and particular?

Mike is right about the mechanicals. Thats what i hear. I just like to write before sleeping in our forums. Whatever come to mind. These things really do not bother me. The car is in great shape. I guess mike is just concerned thinking these things i bother me. I just share...and im very ok with my car. Nothing iv had before comes close. And i am observant and particular chris. At least if there is anything to worry about it catch it before i gets out of hand. Thanks bros
