Shudder is back

Had the TC replaced after triple flush last summer at 15,000 miles. It returned at 18,000 and I will make appointment to bring it back in a week or two. what is different now, though, is that it only occurs in V4 mode. Before it didn't matter which mode it was in or gear.

Also, I can make it go away by switching to manual mode, downshifting to 7th and then back up to 8th. ???? It stays in V8 mode and there is no shudder at all. I know there is some debate about the cause but I have no clue what is going on. frustrating and I'm entering the last year of warranty...

I should mention that the A8 is an amazing transmission in terms of performance. I love being able to keep it in gear or downshift to the gear I want just by modulating throttle pressure. and it shifts a helluva lot quicker than I could with a manual.
