    word of advice... just don't keep your car in first gear driving 50 in tip mode.

    You're only 18 and got a B7 A4?? When I was your age, I was driving a Chevy Citation.
    To answer your post; yes, you can shift from D>S or S>D vice versa - with gas prices these days I'd leave it in D.

    The car would still shift in 'S' mode but revs higher. The only time you gotta shift 'em is when you slide them into 'manual'...or shall I say in some models - 'Tiptronic'.

    I know, this is what happens when I wake up too early in the mornings and sleeps too late at night.
