Transmission was serviced and so far the problem with reverse gear has not reoccurred.
Noise due to defective throw-out bearing in clutch assembly (apparently common in manual transmission 2009-11 2.0Ts). Dealer chose to replace entire assembly (flywheel, clutch plate, TOB and slave cylinder) with updated parts under warranty.
CC has a know issue for its drive train, the car has a very noticeable bump into gear when driving off from a stop. It is related to the electronic shift, when you come to a full stop the transmission shifts automatically in and out of gear.

DSG surging at stop. reported to dealer and software update installed. Now transmission shifts very quickly, car excellent and shifts quickly - doesn't hang like it did before. Joy to drive. Highly recommend the software upgrade.
Car not taking off when stepping on gas after coming to a stop. When driving below 20mph the car has trouble deciding whether it wants to speed up or slow down. Was told that it was something I needed to get use to it, nothing wrong.
