Default 2nd gear is sloppy or what

1.8T Quattro tip......I dont know if it's me or what....but 2nd gear seems to be sloppy on a hard acceleration, tranny just seems to "drop" a couple hundred RPM's..or is it a dead spot in the software....I dont know, but it really sux....should I head to the dealer???? Anyone else with this problem????

Default When I hit 2nd, I feel two shifts within the gear...

one when I'm under 2000rpm then the second shift just after about 2100rpm. If I'm pushing 1st hard going into second, it doesn't do it. I'm not 100% sure but I've come to the conclusion that it's made this way so you don't have to drop down to 1st gear when slowing down and not coming to a complete stop in Tip. mode. Make sense??
