Default I thought the stock S4 gearbox has the lowest 6th gear...
unless the allroad has a tall sixth because of the higher final drive ratio.

Dump that 4.11 rear end. Use the Tips 3.51.

Default Master of the Obvious!
TIP is the same, so if you wanted to make a super quick TIP you could use the A4 gears ;-)
