I am have serious reservations in allowing the software  change to improve emissions  to be applied to my  TDI DSG Tiguan, I have read so many bad reports of a serious flat spot at 1500/2000 rpm , which when towing is going to cause problems pulling from junctions etc

My question is, simple . Has anyone committed to having this “upgrade” carried out , and have there been any members having had this upgrade carried out on their VAG cars find performance compromised

 I am on a Yeti forum and the ones that have had the "Fx" have all but 1 had problems.

It annoys me the way VW deny it has anything to do with the fix. Funny how the problems start after it tho'. Do they think the fairies did it?
