I wanted to share this and get some input. I have an '08 A6. It seems that I have a poor shift problem using the paddles shifters, but only in "S" when NOT in Competition mode, but not in "S" when I am in Competition mode. The problem is very specific to only this one mode and only when I use the paddle shifters.

Anyone else experience this?
Anyone have a clue as to what's happening?

A few words about the videos:

1 – These were taken with a Sony HandiCam
2 – They were “video captured” with a Pinnacle video conversion device
3 – “Shift Start” in the video is the “time stamp” of the video when the RPM pointer climbs through acceleration and then starts to fall (starting the shift)
4 – “Shift End” in the video is the “time stamp” of the video when the pointer starts to climb after the shift is complete
5 – There are 5 videos in total. They are respectively:
In “D” - shift time 0.70 seconds
In “S” and not using the paddles (not in COMP mode) - shift time 0.51 seconds
In “S” and using the paddles (not in COMP mode) - shift time 1.20 seconds!!!
In “S” and COMP mode and not using the paddles - shift time 0.44 seconds
In “S” and COMP mode and using the paddles - shift time 0.54 seconds6 – The measured times here are very accurate (within 1 frame of video which is ~ 0.03 seconds).

Here are the videos...
