That would be sick. I don't think I would like it though, too much shifting going on. I would rather have a T56.

Re: TCI 6 speed automatic

I like it too but it sucks that you have to use their paddle shifter. I would be better if you could use the stock shifter and modify it to work so that nobody would know you have and A6 and not an A4

Re: TCI 6 speed automatic

It's a 4L80E and their electonics allow using the OD gearing to split between each of the normal forward gears. - That's why it has to be elctronically controlled with their controller.
