Description of the problem	It is a common driving issue with my my2008 volkswagen r32 equipped with a dsg transmission. There are times when accelerating at low speeds the car will lurch and then it appears the dsg disengages and the car coasts as if it is in neutral and this is in either d or s mode. Also when driving on the interstate at speed, occasionally when i go to accelerate when changing lanes to pass a slow individual, the dsg appears to disengage while the throttle is depressed and then coast momentarily like it is in neutral in d, s, or m mode and then finally it will reengage. This occurs every time i drive the car including today.
