IE DSG TUNE TECHNICAL FEATURES
HIGHER SHIFT POINTS
Utilize the whole powerband of your 2.0 TSI engine without the DSG interfering and shifting early.
DRIVE MAPPING REWORKED
The Mk2/8J TTS 2.0 TSI DSG is designed to a fault to keep engine rpm extremely low in drive. We completely reworked this, creating a more enthusiast-friendly drive mapping which shifts a bit higher. This eliminates vibration and that constant feeling that you’re lugging the engine. We’ve reworked the downshifting aspect as well, making the transmission much quicker to deliver power when you need it. Thousands of miles of testing were accumulated and a variety of users were polled to come up with this improved drive mode.
INCREASED CLUTCH PRESSURE
Increasing the clutch pressure allows for the transmission to hold more torque without causing clutch damage or expedited wear. With the increased torque, the acceleration will be greatly increased and launches will far more aggressive.
FLASHED THROUGH OBD-II PORT
There’s no need to remove the TCU from the car and it can be flashed in your driveway or through an IE software dealer. Additionally, having an IE PowerLink cables means you can install updates are they become available as well as read TCU and ECU fault codes.
TAKE-OFF LAG REDUCED
The clutch engagement has been reworked to reduce that annoying “DSG Lag” when moving away from a stop.
MULTIPLE LAUNCH RPMS
The purchase of an IE DSG file grants you access to customization of launch points. With several launch points to choose from you can pick what works best for your setup!
KICKDOWN REMOVED IN TIPTRONIC/MANUAL MODE
The kickdown switch is disabled in manual shift mode, ensuring you stay in the gear you’ve selected, even during hard launches or over bumpy terrain.

YUM
These are really fresh bananas and the color and size were perfect. They taste sweet and I will deliberately allow two to go over ripe for banana bread. Love the same size in the bunch. I'll order them again......the value alone makes me want to reorder them here.

Quality Bananas delivered from Amazon - Last long and not bruised!
Color me surprised to get GREAT bananas delivered from Amazon! They put a cover over the tip and they last even longer. This was my test to see how carefully food would be delivered given how easily bananas bruise and they passed with flying colors - I've ordered many times (and other food items too) since then and always received quality product. Now when the food items pop up after my order I click to order more with confidence!

LAVAZZA
Flavor Name: Espresso, Size: 35.2 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is my go-to coffee for a smooth, rich espresso every morning. The medium roast has a perfect balance without any bitter aftertaste. Since they are whole beans, the freshness and aroma are top-notch once ground. It’s a great value for a high-quality 100% Arabica blend!

The Best Coffee Beans in the World for the Price
Flavor Name: Espresso, Size: 35.2 Ounce (Pack of 1)
First of all, my headline is an opinion. I understand that coffee is beloved by most of humanity and that it engenders strong opinions, so don't be offended if you disagree. Let me state my case and build some background and context:
1. I drink coffee black. If folks are putting cream and sugar into their coffee, or making espresso drinks with milk like lattes or Cappuccinos, I feel as though they don't have to worry quite as much about things like acidity/bitterness in coffee because milk changes the taste a lot. If you also drink coffee black, this review is perfect for you.
2.. This review is meant for people who intend to brew these coffee beans with a classic Drip Coffee Maker or a French Press. This is because these are the only methods I've used to brew the coffee. While these beans from Lavazza are called "Espresso Roast Coffee", that does not mean they can only be used for Espresso. If a coffee roaster labels something an "Espresso Roast", it simply means that roaster believes the beans would do well when prepared as an Espresso. That does not mean it can't also be used via other preparation methods. There is a little picture/symbol on the front of the package that indicates this is also good when prepared as Drip Coffee or via French Press.
2. While this particular "Espresso Roast" is not the only type of coffee beans from Lavazza that can be used for drip coffee, I would recommend sticking to varieties that are labeled "100% arabica." There are two types of coffee beans: Arabica and Robusta. Like anything else, you could Google this and find 2 full pages of info to read regarding the differences between these two bean types. But the easiest breakdown seems to be that Robusta beans are more intense (or robust, guess it's in the name) but often more bitter. The bitterness especially becomes present when the coffee is slowly brewed as drip coffee. This is why Lavazza has lots of varieties so you would need to use their website to determine the full list of products they sell that are 100% arabica. You will see that they only have the icon indicating the coffee is good to be prepared as drip coffee for their 100% arabica blends, going along with what I'm saying.
3. Going back to point 2, this is what makes Lavazza Whole Bean Espresso Roast so amazing. There is simply no bitterness regardless of how strong you make it. When you look at Lavazza's description of tasting notes for this blend, they mention Floral and fruity notes. This is where I always feel dumb as I don't personally get those notes. For me it's extremely rich, full bodied, and I get those nice chocolatey, roasty notes. I don't mean like dark chocolate or deeply roasted notes like I would get from a dark roast, because you can clearly tell it's a medium roast. More of a milk chocolate type of flavor profile. I definitely don't get the fruity/floral notes Lavazza mentions, which for me is good as those are not my preferred flavors. I'm not saying that those listed flavor notes are purely just subjective or matter of opinion, but I taste what I taste.
At the end of the day, in my mind what makes the coffee quality is that even when you brew it much stronger than what you might say is average, there's simply no acidity or bitterness. If you purchase the 2.2 pound bag and drink this coffee for a month straight (or however long the bag lasts) and then go back to major American brands, like ones with initials like SB or DD, the acidity and bitterness will become obvious immediately.
4. Regarding point 3, am I saying there are no American Coffee Brands or American Coffee Roasters that make good coffee that isn't bitter and acidic? No I'm not. What I'm saying is that those will be boutique coffee roasters or smaller brands that will be much more expensive than this Lavazza Coffee. Are there any big American Coffee Brands that make coffee like Lavazza? I'm saying NO. Flat out, unequivocally, no. Lavazza is a billion dollar Italian brand. I love to support local companies when possible, but they are not going to be price competitive with Lavazza. So as your everyday coffee, if price is important to you like it is to most, then obviously it's all about finding the best for the cheapest. Queue this coffee.
5. This coffee should run you no more than $18 full price for 2.2 pounds as of December 2024. You may occasionally see it priced higher, this means it's sold out through Lavazza directly and a third party seller has jacked up the price. I would not purchase the coffee from any other seller than Lavazza so watch out for that. Just as importantly, YOU DO NOT have to pay $18 every time if you watch for sales. There are frequent sales of anywhere from $2-$5. So you can get this for as cheap as $13 which is an absolute steal for 2.2 pounds of this glorious coffee. It's still a great deal at $18 for the quality, but at $13 or $14 it's the ultimate no brainer. Maybe order 2 bags when it's on sale.
6. You don't get to control how fresh the beans are when you receive them which sucks. But to Lavazza's credit, they often arrive within 6 weeks of the packaging date. This is also to their credit: They have the date the beans were packaged on the side, not just the expiration date. The key thing to know is that there is indeed a big difference if you are drinking 4-6 week old beans (never got them fresher than that) vs 3 or 4 month old beans. The difference in freshness is pronounced both in the taste and even more so the smell. This is just the reality of ordering this coffee at this amazing price, have to trust you will get it relatively fresh. For my experience, I have for the most part.
Bottom Line: If you are an American like me mostly making and drinking drip coffee, and maybe not as sophisticated as an Espresso drinker, drinking this Lavazza coffee will make you realize that other brands you have been consuming are acidic and bitter when brewed as drip coffee. You will probably either place this on Autoship if that's your kind of thing, or at the very least you will order it again. But I guess you will have to take the chance on it to find out. I don't think $18 (at most) is that big a risk.

Smooth, Rich Coffee That Makes Every Morning Better
Flavor Name: Espresso, Size: 35.2 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have tried so many coffee brands over the years but Lavazza Espresso Whole Bean Coffee has really become one of my favorites. The instant I opened the bag, the smell was wonderful. It smelled like rich, fresh coffee, and my kitchen instantly turned into a cozy little café.
The smoothness and balance of flavor is what I like about this coffee. Some espresso coffees can be too bitter or strong but this one has a very nice medium roast taste that is rich without being overbearing. It tastes slightly sweet and creamy, so it is good both as regular coffee and in espresso drinks.
I run these beans through my espresso machine every morning and they grind beautifully. The crema is thick and a beautiful golden color, which makes my homemade lattes and cappuccinos all the more special. Even my husband who is very particular about coffee said how fresh and flavorful it is.
The 2.2-pound bag is also a great value, as it lasts a long time, even in a house full of coffee drinkers. I like that the beans stay fresh when sealed properly and I have not had any oily/stale beans in the bag.
I also like that this coffee gives you a nice energy boost and doesn't taste harsh or acidic. It's smooth enough that I can drink more than one cup without it upsetting my stomach.
Overall, I think Lavazza Espresso Whole Bean Coffee is a great choice for anyone who loves strong, smooth coffee with a high-end cafe taste at home. I will definitely keep buying this for my daily coffee habit.
