Just do a full auto-scan; it's the first block that shows up in the log file that is generated after it completes. Looks like this:

Address 01: Engine (------CEUC) Labels: None
Part No SW: 4G0 906 014 B HW: 4H0 906 014
Component: 4.0l V8TFSI / H62 0007
Revision: NCH62---
Coding: 0A2500326526000E1000
Shop #: WSC 45394 001 1048576
ASAM Dataset: EV_ECM40TFS0114G0906014B 001007
ROD: EV_ECM40TFS0114G0906014B.rod
VCID: 2143E07230BE7716B49-8074

The bolded part is the ECU SW part number.

Thanks for that, I will get to looking right away.

I have a 2013 S7 (which shares its inner bits with the S6). I followed the advice on this page and had the TSB's applied that Maher indicated on his receipt. I provided the dealer with Maher's invoice and the dealer was happy to help at no charge. The TSB's resolved the throttle lag issue and the jerky shifting in S mode. I will say that the TSBs make the throttle response normal, the throttle control while connering is now much increased, and rev up/ passing on the high way is as it should be. Don't necessarily expect the car to now squeal all four tires from the stop light if you apply these TSBs however. Very thankful for the help here.

I'm glad the dealer did it and I hope Audi will make it a fix for everyone owning an S6 or S7

I went to 2 different dealers to apply the TSB and no luck. I also called Audi customer assistance which was of no help. The throttle lag on my 2013 S6 continues ....

Did you offer to pay for the TSB service?

Yes, the dealer would not do it. They told me that the TSB did not apply to my car (2013 S6) and the TSB was incompatible. I going to ask the dealer to call Audi Technical assistance to try to follow up on the issue. Any other suggestions?

Now I'm worried!

I'm bringing my 2013 S6 into the dealer for the 15K service. I Have already given them the heads up about the issue and about the "TSB" fix. Any info that anyone really wants? I'll ask for codes and the like if there are still any questions.

I had my car in for its 25K service and mentioned I wanted TSB 2035235/2 applied to fix throttle lag issues. The status on the receipt was that the TSB was not applied because it would not be covered under warranty because I'm tuned. Also mentions that it may overwrite any aftermarket ECM modification (not a problem for me if true).

I guess next time I'll just offer to pay the labor rate to get the TSB done.

They did do 2036167/1 to address the black residue on the turbo coolant lines. My dealer made it sound like Audi was going to send out letters about this campaign. Glad I got it taken care of.
