I took it out for a spin, and noticed the tach bobbling a little bit after getting up to speed and releasing the gas, as the transmission upshifts to the highest gear. I have steptronic, obviously. I haven't read anything about this so maybe I'll give it a few days, maybe the ECU is used to dealing with backpressure and needs to relearn something.
tell me how this works for you, PM me, I just got my E93 and wanted to do this. Thanks!
