Good to hear, this is how manual mode should be! I personally love to loaf around town in top, it would do my head in if the car kept changing down if I slowed from say 40 to 25. I gather the S4 is annoying in its programming, DK you said you had one that wouldn't redline no matter what you did?!535dboy wrote:Yes this is true and nor will it change down unless it absolutely has too which I like. This is the worst aspect of the Mrs' porker because it will still kick down and change upTrups wrote:Try the tiptronic out, when i went to the preview drive and had it in Manual mode when it red lined it did not shift up, just bounced.

My c6 RS6 dont redline
My S4 will redline in manual, in fact I've had the limiter cut in a couple of times when I forgot that I was in manual mode!Ian_C wrote:That's <beep>!! I don't think I could go for a DSG S4, it would be quicker 0-60 but the novelty would soon wear off
Yes it's a FL car.___ wrote:Is yours a facelift?
Pfl doesnt red line and im sure i drove a fl which did the same?!
I agree with you there, I wanted a manual but unfortunately, as we all know, someone in Audi has decided that the auto is the way to go. While I love the s-tronic I would still have liked to have a choice and I'm sure Audi would have sold quite a few manual S and RS cars if they made them available - as long as they sort the offset peddles out!Ian_C wrote:Cool, at least that's the right way round, at least the facelifts (all auto of course) will redline, if I was going for a prefacelift it would be a manual
