This Stage 1 tune is ideal for owners looking for a straightforward performance upgrade with minimal requirements and maximum results.
Our DSG tune is a complete re-work of the factory DSG settings. We’ve worked hard to bring you a perfect all-around package that enhances drivability and increases enjoyment. In manual mode, you have full control of your upshifts with the “auto up-shift” disabled. Clutch pressure is increased across all drive modes to handle the increased torque from our Stage 1 or higher files, but still works with a factory-tuned ECU for users who simply demand a more spirited transmission than the factory supplied.
Race on Sunday. Commute on Monday.
Because not every driver drives the same, we've designed two versions of our TCU tune for the DQ381. While our competitors may only offer one style of DSG tune based on their own driving preferences, we see requests from customers that prefer a more "daily drivable" Sport mode and others that prefer to have their Sport mode be more aggressive and allow them to stay closer to peak torque in every gear (to reduce the need for a gear kick-down when accelerating hard).
Our solution is to provide our TCU tune in two versions and leave the decision up to you. At no extra cost.

The Autobahn is a more compliant Sport mode for highway or city driving. When cruising at a constant speed and a medium-low RPM/Throttle position the Autobahn S-Mode will engage the next gear to bring RPM down and provide a more comfortable driving experience when highway or city driving. | The Nur-Spec S-Mode has a more aggressive shift behaviour for spirited or track driving. In S-Mode, when driving at a constant and medium-low RPM/Throttle position, Nur-Spec will remain in gear until a higher RPM or throttle input is reached. |

Dude. Just Drive. If you are using the TuneZilla Portal App to purchase and organize your tunes, you'll be able to download both TCU tune versions to your Tune Library and flash either version when you want using your FlashZilla Lite or FlashZilla Pro dongle. The TuneZilla Portal also supports offline flashing. So you can flash your ECU or TCU anytime with files that you have downloaded to your TuneZilla Portal.
