M550 slow shifts
My transmission has felt super lazy shifting in low gears at slower speeds/slower acceleration. Anyone else ever had this? I don’t know if I just haven’t noticed before or if it’s something with the computer adapting to some kind of driving habits. I know some do that but can’t remember if the transmission/computer in these cars adapt like that.

Normal driving in traffic it shifts like I expect it to. It’s more in parking lots and other really slow situations that I notice it. It could just be something I never paid attention to before and now I can’t unnotice it. It’s like the computer gets confused and doesn’t know if it needs to shift or if I’m about to slow down and it should stay in 1st (maybe 2nd, whichever it’s in when I’m idling/slowly navigating parking lots, etc.)

the more i drive the M340i and the M550i the more i am annoyed by how slow the throttle response is mainly, and how slow the upshifts are when my brain wants a lower gear. even in sport plus! (manual mode is ok but who drives an auto in manual mode!)
can i suggest you manually shift and see if it shifts as fast as you thought i should shift? |
