I just did a swap on my car from an A4 over to an M6. Some very helpful people have sent me a stock file for which I can compare to my original file (I assume unaltered).

With the car now being a standard, do I need to worry about any of the tranny tables now? Those are the spots in the files that have shown the biggest differences. I am using Tunercat and there is a section of about 40 tables from Normal Mode Up/Down Shift points through to TCC WOT Forced Lock Speed Threshold Vs. Gear. My concern is something is related between the motor and a tranny file.

I would rather be on the safe side and not just blindly upload a file and have it do something bad to the car.

 

You should just be able to load up and M6 file and go...?

 

Or just take your A4 bin and change the speedometer settings.

 

Use the M6 file. The way I understand it is there are differences in the M6 and auto file that can't be seen or changed in Tunercats. The M6 file will ignore the auto tables. I use an M6 file in mine and it worked fine.

 

Thanks for the info on that. I uploaded the M6 file that I got and it worked fine, and now the speedo looks close. Now hopefully it'll pass an e-test so I can drive/enjoy the car!

 

I found that using an A4 file that was simply modified for the speedometer got me 10 degrees of timing retarded every time I shifted. Switching to an M6 program remedied this...
