How to roll a auto

[TrebleTA]

So as some of you may remember, Ive just got a dsg polo, I've always had a manual before.
My question is. In my manual I could brop the handbrake and roll the car, its been so long, I can not think how to do it with the auto, with the car turned off. When I tried to move the lever, it would not, also then apon starting i could hear a rattle under the car, it stopped once I drove off. Next day I tried to move to leave again, knowing it would not move, just to see if I got the rattle and did, only notice when I did the above, got cars first mot etc Oct so will get them to look, but how do I roll the car?

I would have thought that you need to start the engine and put it in Neutral, then take the hand brake off.

There must be a way to roll the car, there is many reasons why, and supplying power to do so should not be needed. something simple on a manual.

P.s I'm guessing there be like a pin hole under the gear lever boot?

i think you can put it into neutral with the engine off and otherwise there is a red emergency pin below the shift boot you can pull

Sorry, don't want to hijack the post but how are you finding the Dsg? I like you have always had manual and are considering Dsg. Are you enjoying the experience?
Thanks

Turn ignition on but don't put foot on brake. Move lever to N, handbrake off, push.
