Default ACCELERATION HESITATION

I have a 2006 A4 and have experienced it hesitating once I try to accelerate from stop. It hesitates for a second and then kicks in and is fine. Anyone else experience this?

A longtime characteristic, nothing sounds wrong.

Funnily enough my 2006 A4 Manual is in the garage today for the very same thing. They need to do a software upgrade (Audi are aware of the problem). Your local dealer should be able to carry out the work under warranty.

Default I have the same issue ... so far no fix

I've found the cause to be a slow 2-1 shift. Very lazy shift. It should never shift to 1st unless I'm at a complete stop or floor it. Anyways, still hoping for a fix.
