Tiptronic Box

[marty72]

Hi all,
just a quick question regarding how much torque my Tiptronic gearbox can handle?
I've just had a remap done on my 3.0 diesel Quattro taking it to 292.2BHP and 480 fttlb of tprque.
My question is will the auto-box be able to take the torque increase?
Thanks
Martin

Thanks Gaz, looks like I've still some way to go before reaching that value;)

I notice on the really high torque Audis (like the Bi TDI A6) they only offer this in Tiptronic option... and not S tronic... presumably because Tiptronic Auto boxes are the only ones capable of handling the torque... Unless I've missed it, even the new A4s don't come in S Tronic on the 272 BHP TDI... for the same reason...
