Winter tires make a HUGE difference. Driving care and good tires will help a lot. The low ground clearance will cause some issues with deep snow, but covered streets can be tamed by good winter tires.

And for the record......you don't have a DSG/PDK transmission. You have a conventional planetary gear style tranny. The DSG/PDK are dual output shaft transmissions (simplified explanation)
