My Tucson has a 7 speed DSG.
It's mostly faultless. In general use it's you don't notice it. Gear changes are seamless.
Occasionally it can get "lumpy". Usually whilst creeping along in a traffic jam on a motorway. Last time it did it I was stuck for about an hour doing 2 MPH and the car got a bit jumpy - kangarooing - but not quite. I guess the performance changes when the clutches get very hot.
I guess the clutches get slipped at times too at very low speeds.
I had a 3.2 v6 Audi Tiptronic in 2007 (oh I miss that) and that had an almost faultless DSG box. It was lumpy at low speed to start with then smoothed out after a very short time. It had no problems putting 250BHP trough it in anger.
