This is a real shame to start your '8 ownership with problems. If you want to talk to another ZF expert, this is the guy Brian and I have used:

Thank you. I called them today. I was told I was going to get a call back but I didn't so they must have been busy.
Tim from ZF called me back with some more info today. He told me to carry out a stall test to determine whether the clutch packs are at fault. He also said that a bulletin had been issued regarding faulty coolant temperature sensors which can indirectly cause transmission issues and problems with shifting even if no fault codes are present. I have also found out that Audi and ZF lifeguard 5 fluids are Mobil ATF LT 71141 rebottled.
