    First time Audi owner and as I get closer to the end of the break in period I'm really starting to see how amazing this car handles and the smile it puts on my face when the turbo starts to pull. But this is my first dual clutch transmission car but it feels like my old manual 97 civic si when it's in sport mode or even when pushing it in drive. Is the tranny suppose to be more refined like a normal 6 speed auto? Keep in my I came from a 2013 kia Rio and my other vehicle is a SUV lol.

    That's normal for Audi's dual clutch. In particular, low speed gear chances (1-2 or 2-1) can be jerky and stop-and-go traffic can make you think you have problems. It does not have a torque converter, so it will not be as smooth as a traditional auto.
    Current: 2016 A3 w/ Black Optics
    Sold: 2013 S4 with AWE intake and resonated exhaust.
