Hi, I got a 99.5 1.8T QTipS (about 1000 km so far). Yesterday, while I was driving, a dog suddenly ran out on the road so I had to brake suddenly and the car stopped fine and no problems with the dog either. The thing is that I noticed the transmission seems to be "jiggling" a bit. It gave the feeling that the car was about to stall (as in a manual), of course the car didn't stall or anything, but that's the closest that I could describe the feeling. So far my transmission has shifted very well and smoothly, and this is the first time that I had to brake suddenly, so I don't know if that's the only reason why the transmission would do that, still trying to shift down quickly perhaps? Does anyone have any insight on this matter? I was driving on the "D" gate, not the tiptronic side if that matter. Thanks...

A few others have experienced it too. Same response from dealer.
