Although I can not specifically say if something is wrong with your car or if it is different than mine. I can say that there is no way to entirely 100% eliminate the lag. Most folks cars seem to have much less lag at high rpm and high throttle application as mine does. Lastly you do need to learn to drive M-DCT, it is not SMG, not an automatic either. You do have to second guess the shift point given any lag, small or large, bearable or unbearable. The shift lights help enormously. Once you get over this small hurdle, the transmission, IMHO, is simply brilliant.
