Default Megatronic getting replaced

A few months ago I asked if anyone else noticed any issues when moving really slow in first gear with their DSG equipped A3. Like backing in or pulling out of a parking space. My car is very "jumpy", not smooth at all. Feels like someone who is just learning to drive stick and hasn't learned how to feather the clutch. It's embarrassing when others are in the car.
Anyway, Audi diagnosed it as a problem with the Megatronic control module and is waiting for the part to be released from Germany.

Our 06 A3 DSG had the same issue 2 years ago (at 2k miles). Had the Mechatronic replaced (took almost a month to get the part), and it's been fine ever since.
