At least in the gasoline to E85 direction, why would you need to move  
the mixture slowly? It seems like that's 'safe', and you'll get  
somewhat degraded performance until the ECU catches up. Switching back  
suddenly is disastrous, of course.

Unfortunately E85 is just unavailable here in CA, otherwise I'd be  
thinking about E85 software for the Audi.
