Pretty sure 1st and reverse are on the same shaft in most cars and have been for a while??
The vid is informative and I have to say it rings perfect with every situation I've been in. I've noticed the lag as Stephen says though. I've also noticed when reversing, say out of a space and then when going to D it's quite some time and very jerky before you move forward. Btw I don't mean minuets but if you do it in a quick motion and maybe still rolling backward, the car doesn't like it.
Still better to drive than manuals
Oh and has anyone stalled doing the whole rolling back start? Is it poss to stall the S Tronic?
Interesting about the Q5, I've noticed mine different when cold. My discovery 3 used to stall if I went from R to D while still rolling. Caught me off guard the 1st time it happened. Not done it with the A3 yet although it felt close a few times.
Thanks also for the shaft info.ð
