Tiptronic vs. Automatic Transmission. (Need Answers!)

One word.... HILLS
Living in Pittsburgh we have a ton of hills. On my Toyota I was going through a set of pads almost every 9 months. I'd have to ride the break to keep under the 30-45 mph limit.
With the A4 I simple use the tiptronic to shift down into 3rd or 2nd and no more riding the break!
Also it is jut fun to shift sometimes.

another word-turns
when driving near the limit, throttle input can be used to induce oversteer, without having the car suddenly change gears on you. This is a good thing, because if you are driving at the limit and your car changes gears in a turn, it's easy to loose it.
Ask your friend to take his to the redline in every gear, and watch his tach, odds are he'll miss it on at least one gear.
