Thanks. Looking at the site and I cannot say it gives me great confidence. It just comes off like a cheap scam. Very little information. They also don't show a Q7 past 2010. I appreciate that folks here say it works but man it is hard to get over how "scammy" the site looks.

You must have had a granny driver as previous owner. I do not feel any hesitation off the line in D. Did you try the S mode yet? I suspect a reset of the TCU will let you start from scratch learning mode.

I need to play around with S more in comparison to D when I next get a chance to drive it.

After getting a chance to play with it, S mode does correct the problem. Unfortunately there is a gas penalty for using it and I don't think you should have endure that just to get rid of the initial delay.

Or maybe the logic in the D mode is to start out slow to save gas? I really do not see any delay or hesitation in D mode, so I am not sure what you are noticing. However, when I want to really drive this machine, S mode definitely kicks some butt.

When at a stop if you press the accelerator slightly the car doesn't start to move. You actually start to move your body but the car isn't going. It's an odd feeling. I believe the issue is that the pedal doesn't really engage until it is pressed further whereas in "S" mode it goes right away. S mode also revs higher so it is going to use more gas. I shouldn't need S just to have the car start to move at the top of the pedal press.
