Car hit my wifes car and drove off
Discussion
It's a false alarm but thanks for the assistance. To be fair i can't blame her for thinking the car 'felt' like a shunt. She just picked it up 'Tiguan' from a service and there is something not right. It feels like a rear end shunt but im happy to say it wasnt a collision.
maybe the mods want to delete the reg details.

To anyone who thinks it weird. Try dialing in 4k rpm then dumping an auto into D. Nice shunt action ensues. It's exactly like being rear ended. I know the PH massive just love to insult if there is an angle. Swerni, my wife has common sense. It was on a busy round about with cars right up her chuff. I can see how she thought it was a collision. She has a screaming 11 week old in the car so didn't take long to assess the damage (I did ask her and she said she wasn't sure). I accepted what she told me at face vale and I asked for some assistance. I have put my hand up and said I was misinformed.
I will take my chances BV re the libel case. lol

Is it common sense to rev to 4000 RPM and then place the car in drive?
she was stationary and the DSG box went out of gear (neutral) without any driver intervention. As she gave it some gas the revs rose sharply(as it was out of gear) and the box decided to engage gear suddenly, causing a violet shunt. The car had been serviced 4 hours prior (the DSG box serviced in fact).Ive taken the car back and it's showing several gearbox faults which will be something to do with the dealers oil change on the box.
