The Audi may well have adapted to your driving style after driving the same route, depending on the set up, but say 30 miles to reprograme to your style.
Or 20mph may just be the cutoff before changing gear.
You need to understand the revs your car is comfortable at driving, mine for example is happy at 1500rpm, but will pull easily at 1250 rpm.
What gear i would be in doesnt matter, its finding the sweet spot for your car, that is a gear thats economical, (which can often be seen with a dash indicator on newer cars), but without straining the engine, its suprising how low down the rev range you can drive at with a light throttle, 1000 rpm is possible with my car.
