You'd definitely want a weighted shift knob with the DG setup - but then you gotta deal with hot shift knob in the summer and a cold shift knob in the winter. I'm running the S3 shifter in my Passat with the factory shift knob and I find it just perfect for a DD car.
OP, as killfish suggested you might want to take the car to the dealer if you have a warranty or try checking the shift linkages. It was very hard trying to read your original post but it seems as though the linkages might be binding or they may need to be readjusted.
