Paging Paul W....on-demand tiptronic
Paul, recently you posted a list of modifications to your ride. One caught my attention....on-demand tiptronic...
There are many times I have wished that the shift paddle on the S8 would work without moving the lever. How difficult is the mod?<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a8/msgs/182170.phtml">Paul's mod list</a></li></ul>

It's because I have a steering wheel out of an 02 or 03 A6 - That's why it works
It's the electronics in the steering wheel that make it work. If your A8 or S8 didn't have the function, you would need a new steering wheel and airbag from a car that has that function.

Why the airbag?
Isn´t it just the controller for the MFSW that needs to be upgraded/changed?
Do you have the partnr

B6 has a different self cancelling ring than a D2
It has the same one as a D3....but I don't think they came with dual stage air bags...so not guaranteed to work and probably will have a airbag light on.
This is what the new Audi self cancelling rings look like:

And here is what ours look like:
