Are you getting use to the CVT tranny? I have an 09 with the CVT and there is a slight delay when accelerating from a start. I believe it is the gear ratio that the car starts in. The CVT has 8 gears and is geard very high for maximum mpg's. At 70 mph my tach is only reading 1700rpm's which is very low and about 1200 when cruising at 40. The CVT makes the A4 drive like an economy car unless you put the petal to the metal. You should see much better MPG over the Quatto. I could have gotten the Quattro for about the same lease price but I liked the CVT better and would rather have less weight and more MPG. In s mode my car is very fast as it is in multitronic. Use S mode or the multitronic mode for starts and then put it into drive when you're up to speed. How is your gas mileage?

What would traction control have to do with lag?
