Flare and then bang into gear, particularly bad from a start. The worst was starting on an incline where the car might roll backwards slightly, when I applied throttle it would slip and then bang into gear. It also did that on a stop on an incline. It also would flare shifts but that was intermittent. I believe it was worse when hot. In tiptronic mode it was far better behaved, far worse when driving in automatic.
