Surging?
I have a 2000 a4 1.8tq, tip, with a APR 93 chip. if i press down the gas too hard past 100km it jumps down to 4th from 5th and back to 5th and back to 4th in a jerky motion and when i was trying to get to 200km it would just surge on and off @ 180km/h+. can someone tell me wat the prob could be?

Re: Surging?
With a TIP and a chip, the car will gear hunt and change in and out of 4th and 5th. Apparently a TIP chip is supposed to help that but some people have said that it doesn't. My S4 does the exact thing, you kind of have to how hard to press the pedal to avoid that.

Once your TIP blows up, it won't surge anymore...
Sorry for the easy hit, I had to take it, I hope you guys know Im only joking around here. Please forgive me.
