A8 torque converter shudder reflash.

Dunnon how has an auto, but just a heads up for 16s and 17s. If you havent done it yet. There's a recall for reprogramming the Trans. Something about a turbine input shaft failure thing.

Went in for the cooling fan relay and they did that as well.

this only applies to V6 owners, from what I understand, it prevents possible over rev situations when using the paddle shifters

I'm waiting to take mine in for that stupid fan connector recall until something important needs to be done.

Haven't felt any issues with the trans, though I've been running with trifecta's tune basically since getting the car so maybe whatever TCM changes trifecta made also corrected the issue anyway.

I had this done like 2 months ago and the difference in shifting pattern was hugely noticeable.

previously my trans would shift so hard and was never smooth and after they re-programmed it the shift patterns were night and day.

yea, I now see a huge difference in the three modes. touring mode had a bit more leeway with itself beforehand.

was like like a part touring, part sport... but now its ALL touring.
