engine bogging when getting on it??????
A couple of times when I was running at around 55mph Iwent to punch it and the car jumped and then got stuck in this bogging thing.What's this all about? I drive in overdrive position w/ active handling all the time.My car is an automatic.

You're probably right. I forgot about the lack of control of the car in an A4. I'm used to thinking how manuals react.

Beware though. As others have mentioned through out this forum, taking off Traction Control is Ok, but taking off Active Handling is done at your own risk.

Condition
Some customers may comment that the engine lacks power following a wide open throttle downshift, either 3-2 or 4-2, followed by a wide open throttle 2-3 upshift.
Correction
A new service calibration is available for this condition. This calibration is available from Techline starting September 2001, on the TIS 2000 version TIS 10/2001 data update or later. Reprogram the PCM with the new calibration.
