yes s-line is 01032 regardless of paddle shifters ... its a different trans computer then the standard a6 and it has different programing for the SPORT function(you can shift down to 1st gear in tip mode!!!!)

well it works just a problem with communicating... my trans keep goin into limp mode every 5 mins ... this is the first chip they have ever made for an sline but i am being patient because the results will be awesome ... the chip they have for a regular a6 should work perfect for you with no issues so id order it up if i were you ... prince overnighted me another sline file that he stayed late to program last night so im going to try that one today and if it doesnt work they are going to refund my money and find an sline that is local to test the program until it is flawless and then they will get in touch with me ... even though this has been going on for about 2 weeks im not even mad because of the leaps and bounds vast is making for me

gigi i was sick today but that didnt keep me from setting the new chip ...WOW FINALLY PERFECTED!!!!!!!!! launched my car without traction control and felts a little slip of the wheels ... this enough was well worth the 2 weeks for vast to write me a file and the 375$ (fraction of the giac chip)
anyone who needs a tip chip ... talk to prince at vast !

the price varries from program to program i assume. It reduces shift time, fixes lazy transmissions, and prolongs life of your transmission. it is not a must however a tip chip will mangage the power of your ecu chip much better then your stock transmission file. The chip is installed through an ecription board which needs to be soidered to the TCU. i sent mine to vast because i didnt want to screw this up.
