So, occasionally when I'm driving the DCT, whether in auto or manual, if I am on partial throttle and upshift, the gear will engage, but the revs will flare like the clutch is slipping. It's almost as if the car is making more power than the TCU expects, so it doesn't swap gears fast enough. Oddly, this problem immediately goes away when sport mode is activated. I don't know if it has anything to do with the TCU swapping gear sets faster or whatever. I just want to know if others have noticed this.
Problem:
Car's revs flare at partial throttle when shifting up gears past 3rd, only when shifting. After the flare, the gear is fully engaged and no clutch slip occurs.
When:
Engine and transmission are cold
Engine is hot and transmission is cold
