Surely anyone who has purchased a new RS3 from a dealer would have a cause for returning the car due to 'mis selling' as clearly Audi know about this issue?
The dsg is fantastic when driving hard but anything other than real commeitment and it leaves you lacking with poor gear selection etc. My mums new Golf GTi doesnt seem to suffer the same problem strangely.......
DSG and auto are totally different and it is probably the torque in the 335d that...
Unless someone else knows more, if you want to remap the engine keep away from S Tronic. I loved the box but could not map the engine as the box just held it back. Also the standard car is a pain in traffic always in too high a gear. Cane them and they are great but in traffic you will struggle...

I had my S3 for 6 months. I was a September 2009 car and the dealer I sold it to advertised it as £500.00 more than I paid for it new and it has sold!!!!!!!
You can't remap the revised Stronic box yet. Believe me I have looked into that and even had Steve at Stattler check with GIAC in USA. No plans yet.....
Even when they can, to be able to get decent results they have to increase the oil pressure within the gearbox to clamp the clutches harder...
I drive the same way in my Audi as I did in all of my BMW's so does that mean that all Audi drivers are jerks too.....?
This BMW driver hatred is bull...t, there are plenty of idiotic drivers out there and I can assure you they don't all drive bm's.
Well put Spin140. Only someone who had knowledge of both cars could sum it up that way. The problem I have is that due to the restrictions of the stronic gearbox I can't map the car and get the results you manual guys get.
My 335d was mapped and I always planned to map the S3 and it just isnt...
Saloon Msport in space grey with black leather and lots of goodies including logic 7 stereo. Fitting 19's when it comes.
The S3 is a great car and VERY grippy in the wet whereas my last 335d spent most of the winter with its traction light flashing! I still miss it though, thats why I've...
It was a hard decision for me to sell my old remapped 335d and go back to an S3 but I did it in September and have been trying to get used to the S3 ever since! I like the S3 but miss the awesome, instant torque of the 335d and placed an order for a new one last Friday.
Anyone wanting to...
