Default A4 shift point question

I had to have the TCM replaced in my '05 with 29000 miles. It seems to shift well but I was wondering if anyone can tell me at what speed their A4 shifts into high gear under normal acceleration. Mine hits 4th at about 45mph. Is that about the right speed?

Well here's a non science or tested response.

Normal acceleration?

If I am driving in a 35 mph zone, just cruising w/ traffic, in "D", my A4 seems to be in high gear at that speed.

The service manual may offer some actual tests to confirm your thoughts for asking the question.
