I'm in Ottawa Ontario and guys,

I'm really at a crossroads here. I LOVE driving manual but I'm starting to consider Stronic just because it's flappy paddle shifting and double clutch. Here are the factors I'm considering that will help me choose flappy paddle or 6sp manual

Cost of replacing a clutch on a manual S4 VS. Cost of replacing the Mechatronic unit on the Stronic system as I hear they are prone to breaking.

If replacing the clutch on the manual is 3K and a mechatronic unit is 1500-2K then the Stronic Auto may be the way to go.

anyone in Ottawa have an idea as to the costs involved? I always take my car to Tapp Auto and will eventually ask Jason but in the meantime I'm wondering what people here can tell me.

Cheers and thanks

 

I'd get the manual but you're the one who'd be driving it so get what you want.
