[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 284873, member: 3592"] Ghost, the auto steptronic gearbox has ATM, Adaptive Transmission Management, which learns your driving style and maps the gearchanges accordingly. I reckon you're still running in your car and are not driving like a maniac yet, so it's probably starting off in 2nd gear. Hence the slow take-off. When your car's run-in and you start driving more spiritedly, you'll find the take-off very different. That's what I found, and now I'm back to square one again with my new unit. :p I can't remember where, but there's a post in an Australian forum which tells you how to reset the ATM. Otherwise just go into steptronic mode and shift gears yourself to feel the difference. The sprint booster only remaps your accelerator response and as danc says, why pay good money when stepping harder on the pedal will do the same thing? :) [/QUOTE]
