I know one of them is the BMW Assist Module, which I do not have. lol I thnk there is another one...and don't recall wtf it is at the moment. Maybe one of the guys with the nice schematics will chime in with a sweet diagram attachment of the trunk modules.

then do it again using the heel / toe downshift method and the needle will blip around 500 rpms You will not only be able to see the difference in downshifting on the tach but feel it as well I always almost always keep it in S5 and maybe its just me but I like to get more than a 100 rpm blip when Im downshifting from 3-2 at around 40-45mph |

I can say in my case it is not ABS related as I was not cycling the ABS when DCT ignored my downshift command. In fact I was braking at approximately 90-95% when DCT downshift command was ignored.

Another delay. My SA said he does have a M-DCT software update but that it will NOT correct "all" of the current known glitches. He also stated that there will be an update available "online" within a month that will correct all of the glitches. Oh well better late than never. Good for me I guess being too busy for any track time.

Does anyone with a MY 2009 DCT have this problem?
My car is a Wk 36 Build that is somewhere in the Atlantic and I wonder if BMWAG has fixed it in the new MY cars, but is struggling to create an acceptable SIB

My new 09 is due to dock tomorrow in Charleston, can anyone find out if the new cars are subject to the software update? or do you think the update came pre installed as an 09.

UPDATE
Talked to Service at SDBMW today and was told that update would now not be available until OCT/NOV THIS is NOT the way to treat early buyers (Maybe they are waiting for a Bail Out plan. I am now looking for mine.) |

that plain and simply sucks - I have to think about canceling my remaining track days for now and wait until BMW fixes the problem...really starting to get pissed off big time, since I can't use the car for what it was intended to be used for

I just checked BMW TIS and there is nothing new listed for the M-DCT since the fluid replacement fiasco.
Checking Progman, version 31.1 is the latest release, but it doesn't tell me when it was released. It looks like it is applicable to the E90.91.92.and 93. |
