For any one who has an automatic S60 R with an automatic transmission, when using the tiptronick should you push the gas or let up like on a manual transmission?

When downshifting to engine brake, apply a little throttle to avoid jerking the car. You'll know when you get it, should be smooth. When shifting up, ease off a bit unless you're already really into the throttle at high RPM's. Hope this helps.

Perfect, thanks!

It takes time to get smooth, don't give up.

You want to shift up 1st to 2nd then wait a second before letting off the throttle and getting right back on it. The trans will shift up right on time. The lag between 2nd and third is a bit bigger so you'll need to get a fell for that.
When downshifting, shift down, wait a half a second and stomp the throttle a bit and the trans will catch and provide "engine brake". Oh yeah, make sure to buy and mount and elevate sport exhaust for proper effect too nooooice!
