If you hold the car at 4000rpm in 5th...
in tip mode, it can start up and downshifting between 4th and 5th for several cycles before calming down. This doesn’t happen in D
Supposedly it can be “learned out” of the tranny if you let it do it long enough...the problem is that you’ll be getting to 100 pretty quick so it’s not too practical in a busy area.
Nothing BAD will happen but you sure think something is wrong with the car when it does!<p><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/AudiWorldPics/2000/carssmall4.jpg">
