No, it was in for a wheel speed sensor issue and a pano roof issue...nothing drivetrain related.
Other than that, all my services are done by a local independent who has been working on Audis and VWs for over 25 years...far too much turnover at most Dealers in the Service department.
It's also worth noting that there are very few cases of any 3.0T cars having drivetrain issues, there are tons of tuned S4s, S5s, A6s, A7s, Q5s, etc... I haven't heard of very many issues.
Tune really comes down to personal preference. GIAC is local her in Southern California, they are true car geeks, and their tunes seem to run a little more conservative that others while posting similar numbers. For me, there's more meat under the curve instead of near the top, which is fine since nobody is making a TCU tune to raise our redline. APR does support removing the Auto-Upshift in Manual Mode, which lets you shift at 6900 RPM, but apparently it throws a soft code if you hit the limiter before shifting.
I doubt you'll find anyone here who is unhappy with their choice of tune...do it, you won't regret it.
