Guess what! There's a problem with its S-tronic! Delayed a week while it's fixed.

 :grin:

Not an aupiscious (sp!) launch for the updated DSG then eh Robin?

Did they squirm when they said it?

No they said they thought it was minor and could be fixed for Saturday. They didn't think it fair to lend me a "poorly" car. Thumpy gear shifts apparently.

Hi...

Just seen the new Audi A5 Cab...
3.0 TDI S Line S Tronic...
That's 240ps and 500Nm's going through the new S Tronic gear box.
That's hell of a upgrade from the DSG.

I'm been virtually living in the new supercharged S-tronic V6 S4 Avant for a couple of days so far and can report that the S-tronic (aka DSG) performs/delivers power differently on the S4 from the GTI. Full review to come later this week. To give you an idea of how much I'm enjoying the car, Audi claim around 30 mpg and I'm getting 19 mpg. I blame the glorious sound of the Milltek quads!
