though seriously for the guys who shift yourself, what do you do? more aggressive downshift?
I also was taught to, did to, and still do shift by feel and sound, not a blinking idiot light or a tach. But if you have an "E" and you want a tach, code the Alpina display. I did check and it doesn't show in EcoPro but that is a driving mode that I don't ever use.
