Austin Campbell and the DCT supposedly a shade quicker shifting ! I also don't trust myself with 560-600 hp .....some say the S7 is TOO quiet.....fine by me....a touch of growl with launch control is good enough!

I have a 2016 one, amazing car. What I have researched about the tiptronic transmission from Volks is that this one is the most durable and realiable transmission VW has ever made, it inst the fastest one from a shifting perspective as the DSGs/Stronics 6 or 7, however due the heavy burden the RS7 engine brings to the entire car (a lot of heat and pressure all the time) maybe putting the tiptronic 8 was to make sure it doesnt brake as much as a dsg/stronic would do, recent researchs about high performance cars are indicatong that older techs in newer cars has been proving to be a good combination while sustaing the heat, pressure and chassis motion these fast cars generates.

Good video. I have to disagree about the transmission. I bought the car BECAUSE of the auto. I had a dual clutch in my previous Audi and it was rubbish off the line and laggy to the point of dangerous. This transmission just goes off the line, especially for exiting a side road. It can even be foot braked. I'm looking forward to the tune, I'm still deciding on who, but it will likely be Revo at this moment. I too have had radio issues too, so I might do your test. Thanks.

I have a 2017 S7. I love the 7 speed DC transmission. It has the black out package, so 20" wheels. I went with winter tires but being lazy a better choice for me would have been all season Continentals. The adaptive cruise control is a dream. When you have to hit the road and are stuck following highway traffic it is wonderful. It is a great do it all car. Thanks for the video.

I’ve had a tuned S7 and now have an RS7. It’s true the dual clutch is less reliable under heavy torque loads. Mine was fine but was only 525bhp and 800nm. I found the dual clutch dim witted at slow speeds and generally annoying unless in manual mode. The RS7 box is better in every way in my opinion, doesn’t feel any slower but just works better and I don’t worry about lunching it with 700bhp and 1000nm.
