Using the paddles in manual mode is best when there are lots of turns so you can control your car's speed more so with the engine rather than brakes.

Don't know much about cars, I just assumed that if I have Manual and Automatic transmission that it is DSG. For the automatic shifting at the optimal RPMs, I think it never goes over like 5k RPMS for me. Isn't lower gear means higher torque/acceleration? If it keeps going to the next gear at 3-4k RPMs, how is that optimal?
