RE: TIP/TRANSMISSION ISSUES: VAG HELP!
no you pull the fuse and switch the ignition on but don't start the car, leave for approx 1 minute the switch ignition off and refit the fuse then run the engine and drive the car so it relearns

UPDATE:
Wow, what a vital tool Vagcom is to own. I did various scans for fault codes, came up with some minor faults including the circuit trip from removing the fuse, and did some typical procedures referenced from the Ross-tech website: TBA, IDLE, and a Tranny reset, WOW what a difference in resetting my transmission. It is a whole differentmachine now!! Shifts area whole lot better; I just hope it doesn't re-learn to it's original behavior. I also tried doing some experimental soft coding but was not successful, I do not know if I need a login or a valid shop # when recoding. I did some research on here and some VW forums and was extremely excited to try some different codeoptions only to find out that a pre-99.5 is not programmable for a sport-mode option, I guessI already have it..??It would bereally nice to turn off the DSP, wouldn't this fix mytransmission behavior??

Since i have a tip-chip installed, will resetting mytransmission using this VAG tool, https://www.audiforums.com/m_364796/tm.htm,affect the tip-chip at all?

RE: TIP/TRANSMISSION ISSUES: VAG HELP!
A4 Effort I am almost positive and have read in prior posts that a tranny reset WILL NOT affect yout Tip-chip. I believe the Tip chips are an installed, fixed component on the chip itself that cannot be interfered by Vag-com software. I wish Icould experience a Tip-chipped tranny vs. factory specs; I am now debating between the GIAC Ecu chip vs. the GIAC Tip-chip. Damn!

I to am thinking about getting the tip chip, especially since I have more power.
Hopefully everything will work right now on your car! It always sucks when you have things go haywire. [:@]

Hey paintballguy,
Since you replied I wanted to ask you about soft coding the transmission since you initially started the original thread about it. Thereis only one option Ihave for recoding sinceI have a pre-99.5;with or w/o DSP correct? I supposedly havethe sport mode so there is no option there, and ifIswitch to without DSP then I will likely eliminate the transmission re-learning it's sluggishbehavior??

You are correct about or transmission only being able to have one option. We already have the "sport" option on your cars. I have no idea about the rest though. Sorry.

Well unfortunately on my way into work this morning I noticed that my car has returned back to it's odd behavior, running right through the gears and shifting at low rpm's. I am extremely disappointed, I thought the reset would cure the problem. I guess my only other option left would be to see ifI can turn the DSP off eliminating any learning alterations. I just don't understand, the car was shifting and performing great...I'm wondering now if it's a faulty TCU. Any help?
