Steptronic problem

Hey guys. Ok lately, well like last two weeks, when ever i have it in the DS mode, but change gears on my own, sometimes it wont change, like not the usual slow change but im talking like 5 to ten seconds not change.

Then when i want to shift down, it will take a while then do it and then shift back on its on right after, then shift down again. No where near redline or even passing 4rpms.

Then somestimes when im just crusing at like 70, in the manual mode, it will shift all the way down to third. I wont even be slamming on the gas, mostly on cruise control going on a straight.

I have no warranty anymore, and am scared shitless. Plus its been chugging up so much gas lately and i havent been driving like a animal (Example: Two months ago, when i would go to Rosarito, MX, i would barely even use a quarter of a tank, going 80 90. Now i go even slower, 75 or less, and waste about almost half a tank.)

Anyone have any ideas, i been trying to set of a service appointment, but been really busy. Going to take it as soon as i can. Anyone ever have any of these symptoms?
