Default Is my TIP coded for "sport" or "normal" mode? Here is what VAG reports...
Address 02: Auto Trans
Protocol: KW1281
Controller: 8D0 927 156 BS
Component: AG5 01V 2.7l5VT USA 3132
Coding: 00032
Shop #: WSC 06435


I know I should STFA but I looked this up in ross-tech's site and it didn't help much.

After STFA'in, people say 00032 is "sport mode". Why does my tip change from 1-2 then?

Default Stock/Sport. Don't mees with it unless you're 100% sure what you're changing. If you have
a "registered" VAG through Ross-Tech, call them and they will tell you the code for it to be "sport". FYI: The difference isn't worth the 5 min' of your time.


FYI: 00032 is what they call "Sport".

Default You can't "hold" 1st unless you have the GIAC Tip-Chip. What you're talking about
only changes the so-called shift points. From my trials there is zero difference.

Default It will hold 1st until either you redline it or ease off the throttle
at which point it will shift into 2nd.

Why are there conflicting opinions about this. STFA'n does not help here.

Default The only way it will stay in first is, WOT to red-line. You can't hold it any other
way. Unless you have the Tip-Chip. I feel like I'm repeating myself

Default Because people are like.... You get it. I have tried it both ways. IT IS NOT
POSSIBLE TO HOLD FIRST W/ OUT THE TIP-CHIP.

Default You can hold first with a steady throttle input, so long as you don't redline it
But the moment you ease off the throttle, it will shift.

This is with a 2001.5 (thus DL version TCU), recoded to 00032, but without a tip chip.
