Default Tiptronic 2nd gear "pause" revisited

ok on the turnpike on the way home yesterday..
1. Slow down for the toll booth
2. drop it into 2 at about 30mph
3. EZpass is great (NJ speedlimit 15mph)
4. floor it out of the gate and the car hesitates like its trying to shift from 2.5k, however this time the i had to let off the gas inorder for the car to "reset itself" then it got up and go.

it was like ti got stuck at 3k and didnt wanna go anymore

Did you have gas and brake at the same time?

Default I posted this issue a while back

Both my A4 and my VW passat also do that. It happens at about 2800 rpm
