Default A3 1.4 Axle tramp

Hi all
New member , and an avid Audi fan.
i have had a few Audis in the past , I recently traded in my 2014 1.4 manual A3 cabriolet for an almost new 1.4 s tronic cabriolet.
This is a fun car to drive , I like the s tronic over the manual but ... on greasy roads especially pulling away on I slight incline , if I give it just a small dose of power I get bad axle tramp , it's quite noisy as well. I don't mind wheelspin but axle tramp is pretty annoying.
has anybody else had this problem.
i popped it back to the dealership , but the tech guy said that the new 1.4 models were up on power from the previous model, thus causing axle tramp.
comments appreciated.
