Default Very slow cdt auto

Hi

Is there any way of making the cdt auto any faster, i can`t live with this one it`s so slow especially overtaking it`s gutless and seems to struggle with top speeds, i have tried it in sport mode but just revvs more, it don`t seem to have any kick down at all, is there somthing wrong with it or is this normal.??

This may be daft but can an auto be converted into a manual

Cheers
Adrian

Have you checked all the usual suspects?PCV - is it clear?
EGR - is it clear?
Have you tried unplugging the MAF to see if that helps?
Any smoke under acceleration?


Could be any number of things (mostly easily fixable!)
Is it a 116 bhp or 135 ( you can find if it's 135 by checking inside passenger door jam)
I am suRe someone will be along with better advice!
