Hi guys,
I'm new to Automatics only owned manual previously!
Did drive an automatic Mustang across America (Route 66)
But from my first 200 mile experience of the A5 it's not the auto box that's an issue it's the silly start stop function.
It cuts the engine before the car is fully stopped so when you then put foot down it has to start and select gear before you get up and go!
Turned start stop off, and it responds much quicker in my experience anyway.
That being said not gone full on yet as running it in gently!
Simon, as others have said, knock it into sport.
Alternatively it can be disabled with VCDS. Where are you?
