That's curious.
Certainly sure the engine codes came out on the LED, and the Transmission codes came out on the shift indicator, on both cars.
Being right hand drive, UK models, I wonder if this is because the instrument clusters are very different? Our shift indicator is in the middle, under the central 6 warning lamps in UK. European cars have 9 central warning lamps in the middle, and the shift indicator is offset to the left, near the secondary instruments. Essentially UK V8s have something like Audi200turbo instruments from UK models. But, I'll take another look.
Black car
The auto box is shifting up and down ok; Reasonably smoothly. Good thing, as it was overhauled not so very long ago, mileage wise. 2007/2008, with receipts in excess of £2500 for the gearbox overhaul.
It will kick down, also. But overall, it is sluggish.
Certainly it starts off in a low gear, and shifts up through the range.
I have had the car up to 90mph. But it takes a long while, and doesn't have the smooth power delivery you'd expect.
Maybe, the ignition timing is off?
Because of my lack of facilities, much of this is based on best guess. There's not even a local workshop that would know much about these cars.

93 100e quattro V6. Titan, i think
