i have an 06 jetta with the audi (electronically automated) manual
transmission, dsg? the computer needs to totally disconnect the
driveline during panic stops, and i cant really tell if it is or is
not. there is a violent chatter sensation coming from the trans
during panic stops. is this something the dealer should fix, or do
all cars with this trans do the same thing?

If you have antilock brakes, they chatter when panic stopping.

It is simple to tell if the driveline is disconnected or not. Does it
stall? If so, it's still connected.

Do you feel it most in the brake pedal?
