Sorry if this has been mentioned in here before but was on PistonHeads today and noticed a thread about an S4 not providing much power.
Now I understand that the cars "learn" your driving style but do you think the comments made in the below forum apply to the RS4

Does this apply to our cars?

..or the C5 RS6 ??
After reading that post though, I can't help but feel like I've 'felt' this phenomenon of the car car being quicker some days than others - and not just on the RS6 but just about every car I've ever owned during my lifetime. In the late 90's, I had a Rover Coupe VVC and some days it was reasonably quick, other days it really flew. All the cars I've ever owned have done this..
Is it just me or does this damn phenomenon bug the hell out of anyone else??! I just wish that on those days where the car feels smooth and rapid, it would just stay like that for good! Is it possible that many makes of cars have an adaptive ecu? If so, it would explain a great many things!!!
