My 2013 Q5 3.0T is around 97k miles now. Following the ZF procedure and using ZF Lifeguard 8 fluid/filter, at 85k I drained and refilled the trans twice (few hundred miles between each, with new filter during the first fluid change). The vehicle has mostly seen highway miles and the factory fill was still relatively light/clear. After the first fluid change, shifting was super smooth. After the second change shifting was noticeably rougher, so I reset the adaptions and did the relearn procedure which smoothed shifting completely.
In the last 1k miles I've noticed rougher 3-2 and 2-1 while braking. If I let it coast down it downshifts smoothly. It's intermittent but seems to be becoming more frequent.
Any advice?
