TVS Drivability Upgrade – for stock Audi Q5 / A4 / A5 / A6 / A7 (2008 - 2013)

TVS Drivability Upgrade highlights:

  • More responsive and better drivability in D, S , M modes.
  • Greater optimised cruise control program.
  • Unnecessary/harsh downshifts removed.
  • Improved oil cooling.

TVS Drivability software optimises the performance of the DL382 7-speed S-Tronic gearbox for stock, Q5 / A4 / A5 / A5 / A7, with engine variants of 2.0 TDI / 3.0 TDI / 2.0 TSI / 3.0T, From 2008 - 2013. (Not Including S4 / S5 / RS model variants).

While the wet clutch DL501 S-Tronic system is known to be generally strong, reliable and easy to use, there are some known issues which can hamper drivability on stock vehicles.

These include: Shifting gears while at too low RPM , aggressive / unsmooth take-off from a standstill, bump during braking just before coming to a standstill, clutch vibrations and slip, gearbox error messages on the dashboard, vehicle doesn’t want to move at all.

In the same way that ECU software optimises the way an engine performs, TVS’ gearbox (TCU) software does the same for the twin-clutch S-Tronic unit. 

The TVS programme removes unnecessary downshifts, allowing you to hold onto a gear for longer, but also increases the shifting speed, which provides a more responsive and enjoyable driving experience. 

The TVS Drivability Upgrade will transform the way your stock Audi Q5 / A4 / A5 / A5 / A7 drives and also reduce wear on gearbox components.

Please note: The TVS Drivability Upgrade is designed specifically for stock vehicles. If your vehicle has been tuned, please check out the Stage 2+ to Stage 4 S-Tronic TVS tuning options.
