DCT Question
I just had this happen and I assume I just never noticed it before. If I am on the highway in 7th gear going 55 and I mash the gas, hit the down paddle and it downshifts from 7th to 4th (3rd once or twice with the LCD's racing...). Is this a feature I never noticed?
The DCT is great, so much better than my M3 but the throttle lags is a killer. If I am at a dead stop and "floor it" there is a one second delay before the car moves. But with launch control all is fixed.

I think it's only with full throttle.
Best regards, south
