You have a 3.0 TDI Quattro right?

If so, your car does not have a Multitronic box, which would in turn make me be highly dubious of his claim of being a multitronic specialist!

The multitronic is the CVT box fitted to front wheel drive A8s and A6s (and maybe some A4s), your Quattro has a regular torque converter 'tiptronic' box.

Having said that, pretty much all auto boxes for the last 15 years or more have had the ECU that adapts to your style of driving
