My car locks the TQ in 2nd gear and immediately shifts to 3rd gear. It gives the sensation of a slipping trans. Can the lock point be changed to a different timing or controlled manually?

I asked the same thing a while back and asked if TC lock up in 2nd gear and then a shift into 3rd was normal. I didn't get much of a response from anyone...

I think the only thing you can do is can the trans shift program to sport mode. Search it. Its done with VCDS.
