just go either manual or conv auto. It jus makes no diff...
but my OOOO A4 tip so far is fun to play wz ,response is fast .if u
maintain it well like regular cleaning,flushing of ATF oil, etc,,it
shud last u like 5-6 yrs before the performace slack.
mines called the multitronic n uses chain instead of belt..crusing
at80kph on D is arnd 1700rpm only.
