I could have sworn there was a topic on this ages ago but can't for the life of me find it... feel free to link to it if you know where it is!
My new A3 is now in the UK and on its way to the dealership, and I'll be picking it up on 1st March with any luck - need to wait until end of Feb to get all the finances in order anyway so I'm not leaving it for a month just for the sake of a new plate before anyone comments on that! It's my first car with the S-Tronic gearbox, and while I've driven them briefly before when I've had loan cars or test drives, I've not had THAT much time with them.
I'm looking for tips and tricks to get the best out of the gearbox - how to get the best out of it basically. How to avoid sitting there waiting for it to switch gear because you went a different way to what it expected, etc etc. Anyone got any good tips for driving with S-Tronic?
