We've had our Cali for a few months and just got round to trying out manual and sport modes on the auto gearstick. Shifting across to manual seems seamless (same as my DSG Passat). Shifting back to D (right to left) just leaves the Cali in manual unless I move the stick up or down (out of D then back) then it changes with a bit of a grunt. Is this normal? All changes on the Passat were completely smooth I was expecting the same on the Cali.

You mean that when you’re in Drive, push the gear stick to Manual mode and and then pull the gearstick back to Auto, the gearbox is stuck in manual until you switch to either Neutral, Reverse or Park and then back to Drive?

Something is definitely wrong if that’s the case.

Yes this is what's happening - sounds like a trip to the dealer.
