Are you not confusing this with the "jerkiness" of the auto gearbox?

And as with all auto gearbox, you do get a slight delay. And it will NEVER be as responsive as a proper manual gearbox where you can control the clutch with your left foot and select the "right" gear.
Valid point but having driven a fair few re mapped 335d's and shed loads of other cars over the years this isn't me v the lack on instant response that you'll naturally see in a manual its more unique than that zltm something that I hope I'll get to the bottom of and post to help others but its a shame really as it is apart from this everything I hoped it would be.
