Default Tran. Tune.

My tuner was setting up my trans, and said he turned up the transmission pressure from 218 psi to 290 psi on the shifts and turn off the torque managment. This is on a 2007 a6. When I drove the car home, it felt like the transmission shifted softer instead of faster and harder.

Most of the shifts in D and S have separate tables. My tuner turned my shift pressure up mainly in S. Some of the tables go together, but I can certainly tell a diff in S as compared to D.

Go give it a try in that mode and let us know.

Major difference in S vice D with the Intune set to firm on the TCM. I would guess the same applies to you.

I went to englishtown this weak, and the trans shifted much better. I turned 12.20 @ 116 MPH. I put the new super sport tires on the car and had trouble breaking them loose with the trackion off, until I held the button down for 5seconds to turn everything off. Then it brook them loose easy. Thanks for the help.
