At what MPH does A4 shift at ? Hi everyone,
I believe that the 98+ A4, shifts per miles per hour (not RPM), and ofcourse is controlled by the PCM.
Does anyone know (at normal driving, not WOT) at what MPH the computer tells the transmission to shift? (i.e. 1to2, 2to3, 3toOD), also does anyone know the maximum MPH the transmission will downshift from OD to 3rd.
Thanks in advance.

Re: At what MPH does A4 shift at ? Best answer I can give is it depends on how far you're into the pedal and what diff gears you have for "normal" shifting. Kickdown to a lower gear will depend on what gears you have. A 2.73 will kickdown into 2 at a higher mph than a 3.23, for example.
