2016 Audi s3 cabriolet S tronic slow off the line
Discussion
Hi everyone. This is a topic I've raised in the Car Buying section but now I own the S3 I'm posting in the specific Gearbox forum.
My S3 seems very slow off the line. This is compared to my 2017 Golf Gti 7.5 DSG. In fact the Golf gearbox is much more responsive in general.
I think I'm right that both cars have the same gearbox. The VW Dq250. Why doesn't the S3 (which is equally supposed to be the sporty model in the range) drive so much less responsively?
I've looked at trying to reset the gear box software in case it's "learned" from the original owner (I'm 2nd owner). But haven't been able to reset it.
Any ideas for this lack of gearbox performance in the S3? Thanks for reading.
