There have been comments on this (and other forums) plus in the various press reviews about the sluggish performance of the 8 speed box in the C8. I previously had a C7 3.0 TDI biturbo in which I did 124k miles without the gearbox once disappointing; my current C8, whilst a great car in so many respects, seems to have the same poorly programmed gearbox as other folks are complaining about.
I phoned my local main dealer this morning, who checked into my vehicle and advised there were no recalls for a gearbox software update. This surprised me but I am not sure what I can do now. My car was registered 1/5/19. The only software update their system was showing was for the MMI.
Can anyone who has had the gearbox software update, please advise as to whether it was showing as an "official" recall, or whether they had to nag their dealer to get it done. Any clarification on this would be very helpful to all I feel.
Many thanks
