Re: suspension setting
I have a TDI r-line and drive most of the time in Comfort mode, the chassis does roll a little bit more but not as you describe. In sports mode it doesn't move and is very taught. I have the standard car with 19 inch alloys and Goodyear F1 asymmetric all round. To be honest I have no handling problems like you describe and am quite happy with my car. I run all tyres at 35 psi. The car has only done 10000 miles so everything is quite new.

Re: suspension setting
I don't feel any difference in any of the settings to be honest and rarely change out of sports mode. I'd say my suspension was pretty stiff but I prefer it like that!

Re: suspension setting
I always use sport, I can't stand the wobbly jelly body roll in golf mode (comfort). I think the weight of the steering is most noticeable between modes. Actually while we're on the subject, if your swap out the standard suspension for non Dcc stuff what mode does the steering set too?

Re: suspension setting
I notice a huge difference in mine between sport and comfort!
I will drive in normal most of the time and find it pretty good at adapting!
Sport for the back country roads and when I want to really give it the beans! Would drive in sport all the time but some of the unavoidable pot holes make me want to cry when I hear the car sound like it snapped in half
Only flick into comfort mode for certain city roads where I know the roads are horrible and would like to save bits of the Rocco falling off
Comfort is too wobbly and soft for normal driving for me!
