Default Blubbering on upshifts ?

LOVE the lil car when the wife let's me drive her Q but since I'm a more type A driver, I tend to go quickly

last weekend I tested full acceleration as we were getting on the interstate and noticed it 'blubbered' just before the shift point, like it was fuel starved while trying to decide to shift or not !

Going to email my svc advisor about it...
but just wondering if any of you experienced it ?

Yes, we use premium only

Dont say blubbering in the email in case he looks it up! One of the meanings could not even be posted here. Pretty sure your car does not have a leaking or dripping V...na. Try stuttering instead.
On the other hand perhaps they can fix it with a VAG-COM.
Jokes aside, hope its not carbon build up. Please post findings.

I'm still breaking mine in - only at 400 miles. I can't wait to floor that go pedal. I hope I don't have a blubbering Q also.
