Disappointed with A4 35 Tdi engine/box

[Badger27]

Hi, we have a 2020 A4 Avant 35 Tdi S Line. I love the look of the car and the feel on the road. But the engine just feels lacklustre and the gearbox is so delayed when wanting to overtake it’s not an enjoyable drive. 
 

Is this normal? It seems more responsive when gradually building up speed but when you want it to go some, it is almost a guessing game as to when the power comes? It also seems to stutter slightly going from reverse to first? 
 

So basically, is this normal for this car? And if so, can anyone recommend a remap for the engine and maybe for the box itself which may help?

 

thanks

Never driven a 35 TDI (163PS) but sounds like it’s paired up with a 7 speed S Tronic box? There’s not many garages I would trust with modifying or remapping a gearbox. Obvious choice would be Darkside Developments (Barnsley). If it is the S Tronic unit it’s due a service every 38k miles. In addition, check with your insurance as remapping will be classed as modifying.

Yeah 7 speed S tronic. Does this sound normal for that box?
