Welcome. With launch control I assume that you're in dynamic, with traction control off, oil is at operating temp and the steering wheel is straight? It should go over 2k. Unless the suspension error is causing a fault preventing it. You should be able to disable the error light with VCDS or possibly even OBDEleven since cars came with and without mag ride.
The car definitely has a harsh ride so either a suspension change. smaller rims and tires or even slightly larger tires helps. I went with 245/35/19's to soften the ride a bit. chickened out on the 255's and didn't want to change my rim offset https://www.audis3.org/threads/trying-new-size-255-35-19-will-they-fit.1615/#post-6621
