Then I started using S only and it learned what speeds I drive and how I accelerate to those speeds and it adapted by running higher RPM. So I shifted to D and it was fine for a while but now delays upshifting again.
2. Silicone heat sink grease from Radio Shack.
3. One more reason I will never buy any black car.
4. Don't have an opinion. Mine are fine.
5. Get the FOB away from the dash. The receiver is in the door column. You also weren't in the recall for bad FOB receivers, were you?
Great answers.....as for me my 06 A6 shifts awesome, no complaints
