Are the SEAT Leon DSG issues now resolved?

I'm thinking of buying a 2014 SEAT Leon DSG auto SE. What should I look out for? Also, are the DSG issues now resolved?

Great looking car. The smaller engines still have the twin dry clutch 7-speed DSG that was troublesome and can still be but nothing like as bad as before. The 2.0 litre petrol and diesel DSGs are 6-speed wet clutch and more reliable.
