So, it sounds to me from experience like a torque converter/slip/hard shifting and the mileage for it is about right.

Not everyone may agree, but when you change the oil, put a bottle of this.

Oil change and Lucas has solved this problem on countless A8's and Q7, some of course just needed new oil. I've had same problem and after 300-400miles it was gone and never came back.

If you are in London then these are the guys to do it.
