Default A4 Shift settings

Hey Guys,

Can someone tell me if there is a map in the computer for WOT vs part throttle shift points?

My car seems to hit the rev limiter when I slowly and steadily apply throttle but not at WOT.

So this is my theory.

Thanks.

Typically, WOT's hold the shift points a few hundred RPM's higher than the normal shift point.

Sounds like your shift points are off. I would take the car over to ECS and have a tranny tune performed.
