Why didn't BMW get DCT software right the first time?
First, congrats to DCT owners for the new update!
My question now is, why didnt BMW get it right the first time? These cars are tested to death before release, so the testing engineers must have noticed big problems like stalling and laggy response. But why did BMW release a tranny with a faulty software anyway? Were they rushed? Not sufficient funding? Bad program manager?
It just seems odd that BMW would allow a very important new technology w a bad software come to the market and be tested for less than its actual potential.
