Does anybodys tranny do this? Sometimes when around 70 or so, and I floor it, it'll downshift and kind of hesitate for a second..and once in a while if I'm just manually shifting, when I go into 4th it'll rev up about 200 or so rpms while going from 3rd to 4th. All the other auto's I've had never did anything like this, but then again this is my first A4 F-body. It has 43K miles on it. Maybe it's trying to tell me it's about to die on me..who knows..that'd be my luck.

B/c sometimes it's just boring to let it shift itself. My other 2 LS1's were 6spds, so I guess I miss shifting something. I probably do it a couple of times a week.

No mine doesn't do that. Between 65 and about 68 sometimes it'll downshift into second and sometimes it'll downshift into third which I find odd that it's not consistant. At anything above 68 it's all third gear. But it never hesitates before downshifting.

I don't manually downshift it. I'll just go through the gears when I'm getting on it pretty good every once in a while. The downshifting thing happens after it drops down out of 4th, kind of like it hits 3rd, then decides to go down into 2nd or something. It's still pulling during this 1 second or 1 1/2 seconds, just nowhere near as hard as when it finally hits 2nd.

That's kinda what I was thinking. It doesn't do it every time, just maybe 10% of the time when I'm at highway speeds and floor it to pass someone.
