Anyone else noticing that there DCT is laggy and slow to respond. My comparison is to a 135is which also had an n55 and basically the same trans other than the software. That trans was absolutely telepathic in D anticipating what gear I wanted. Also lightning fast and firm on the shifts. The M2 in comparison is not any of this. Since it's the same trans underneath it can be fixed with software if BMW sees fit to do so. I had an option of taking my HEA M2 as is with the DCT or waiting. Since I thought the DCT in my 1 was good I figured it would be the same so took the HEA. It's not. If they don't fix it I'll be in the camp of wanting the manual.
