Re: 2006 A4 Avant - Kicking Problem
Yes, Peter.
It almost sounds like something it would do in 'sport' mode - i.e.,
downshift to provide engine braking.... Does the Tiptronic have a
'sport' mode?
I also wonder if it could be related to the adaptive-ness of the
Tiptronic? You know, how it supposedly adapts to the driver's habits?
There is probably some way to reset it, like you can with the
drive-by-wire throttle system (which is also adaptive, apparently).
Perhaps a search on AudiWorld would turn something up along those
lines. Also, doesn't the transmission generate trouble codes like the
engine would? If that's the case, you could certainly go to AutoZone
and have them pull the codes - I understand they do that for free. Or
try calling another dealer, see what they say.

Re: 2006 A4 Avant - Kicking Problem
I am having the same problem since summer of 2008. On top of the car "kicking" when i come to a stop, my car (06 a4) kicks from 6th to 5th gear and is progressively getting worse. The dealership keeps telling me there is nothing wrong with my car, which is bull. Probably because they don't want to replace my tranny cause its under warranty and are waiting for my warranty to void???
