Yes, it is normal for an automatic transmission to suck.

Call me crazy... I like my tiptronic. But I love my manual

Seriously, Audi tip is sloshy, but being able to manualy shift with buttons on the steering wheel never gets old. In fact I cant remember the last time I drove in D.

if it really bothers you insted of putting the ebrake up first you could always get uuh one of those weird things where you have to change the gears manually...

EDIT: damn roll4 you beat me to the manual joke... and by the way we should have a skaterboarders of AF thread

That is hillarious, Yes it is generally ok for a auto tranny to roll forward or backward a bit. But the only auto tranny car i own now is my Camaro, and its a drag/track heavy duty tranny that can handle the amount of power the car puts out. The manual would break if i put one on there. Unless your pushing some mad torque, get a manual gearbox
