I know on the R8 in dynamic mode they engineered a kick in for some drama. I always thought it felt like they’d done the same for the RS3.

I think he means on the actual shift. ie when you change up or down its jerky. Surely that hasn't been added for drama, it's horrible?

My PFL had a wonderful gearbox, all this talk of jerky gear changes never happened in mine. Take it back to Audi, not normal.

TX.

Edit - if in dynamic and "on a charge" I'd expect the gears to change with a bang / jolt of sorts as the car is on max attack. When cruising along I'd not expect the car to do it so depends on what you are up to at the time.

I'd say normal in dynamic yes if "on a charge" so maxing out the revs and changing at Rev cut point etc. Tbh I only ever used dynamic for that sort of thing, any other time I had custom setting with soft steering and suspension and gearbox just with engine noise in dynamic.

On my R8 in dynamic it is smooth as silk when accelerating hard.
Only clonks I get are at lower speeds and partial throttle.
Kinda similar to going up a motorbike gearbox without using the clutch, seemless when on it but less so when pootling.

My PFL is not clunky either. Doesn't sound right to me :(

Get from 2nd to 1st at very low speed. That's when you get the proper whiplash.
