Question So has anyone tried the test?

I've seen a couple folks indicate they may have the problem, but I haven't had anyone go out and try a 328xi, to see if theirs acts the same.
(Thanks to NoSpleeny for trying it out on his 335xi, The "TU" Steptronic apparently doesn't have the issue.)
I want this fixed. If it's only my car, it's broken. If It's all or a subset of 328xi's with Steptronic, BMW should come up with a fix for us all, before someone gets injured or killed for daring to expect their car to go in a reasonable time.

The NIC noted in the SIB for 335's jerk on takeoff, may have been part of it. Before the dealer worked on my car, there didn't seem to be any power going to the ground until the final gear choice. Now it accelerates very slowly while it's working it's way down the gears.

Thanks in advance.
