Stage 1

You've asked, and we've answered. The TuneZilla team has been hard at work developing and finalizing a true transmission tune for the Aisin 1000 transmission found across select Cayenne, Touareg, and Q7 models. This is more than simply restoring an earlier factory transmission file. Our calibrators have extensively tested this tune to deliver a smoother, more responsive transmission experience, whether the vehicle is equipped with an ECU tune or remains completely stock.

The tune increases the transmission's torque limits and recalibrates the shift points in both D and S modes for improved response and drivability. Kickdown response has also been sharpened, reducing hesitation when additional acceleration is requested and making passing and everyday acceleration feel more immediate.

• Increased torque limits

• Recalibrated shifting points in Drive and Sport modes

• Reduced delay in kickdown response during acceleration

• Shortened gear switch duration

Different Strokes for Different Folks (TDI Only)

We are constantly learning from real world feedback and testing. After a year of real world use and customer feedback, we have developed two variations of TCU calibrations to cater to a wider range of driving styles. This update to the TCU catalog was an effort to reduce the amount of additional costs to customers who choose custom TCU tuning. Pulling from a variety of driving styles and customer requests, we have released an Autobahn tune, and a Nur-Spec tune.

Dieselgate Firmware (TDI Only)

After the Dieselgate scandal, VW updates the firmware in the TCU. This made for a more lethargic driving experience and many owners disappointed in the drivability of their vehicle. Complaints of "throttle lag" are often associated with the ECU tune, however in most cases it is the updated TCU firmware that hampers the driving experience.
