Thats a TDI 6th in an 01E is it, but still with the S8 final drive? How does it perform on the motorway? I've been looking at TDI 01Es for mine - the B6 0A3 I have is 39mph/1000rpm which is far too high. The C5 01E is 36 which still seems a bit high (0.56 6th but 3.889 final drive).

I've got the S8 down as 4.111 final drive so that may explain why my calculations are off a bit.

I'll have to look up what the 4.2 has. Maybe thats what I need to shoot for in a manual.

Edit - my S8 is 4.111 according to Etka and Elsawin. FBG gearbox and EUU rear diff. The DGV manual is the same.

Goran - what gearbox is in yours?
