The DCT downshift problem is a software related feature/fault and has nothing to do with you being off or on the throttle while downshifting. I wonder if there is really anybody out there that has driven their M-DCT car hard on the track that didn't experience this problem??? Sprited driving on the street doesn't count, as I don't think that anybody would be going 140MPH and brake down to 50MPH in the shortest distance possible...

There should be a "OFF" button for the DCT safety features, like for the DSC.
