After having xHP on my 330i E90 and 328i F30 i couldn't wait to get it on my 340iX, but i've gotta say i'm somewhat disappointed and have mixed feelings with Stage 3.

There's like 1.5 seconds of lag when i shift manually in comfort mode, and still like 500ms of delay in sport. Only Sport+ is actually improved somewhat, but i don't really want to have to drive in Sport+ all day to get somewhat decent paddle response? It's really weird, i didn't expect Sport to be so slow.

Side to side, taking my N20 328i with the BM3 TCU tune for a spin i can step on the gas, upshift at high RPM and be rewarded with the upshift "brap" instantaneously. Since i got used to the timing of letting off the gas immediately after upshifting and ripping a fart, getting into my 340iX i constantly miss the moment because i have to time the paddle click a second before i get around redline. In sport.

I dunno, i guess i'd be happy with Sport having the Sport+ paddle response, i miss my DCT-like shifts.
