I think the grandma mode will save me some gas money getting used to it.

Took a long drive home tonight, I have to say the D cruise mode is really nice. I don't drive my car like I stole it, but occasionally I'll enjoy the power the car provides, this new shift map is exactly what I think the car should be, and S is exactly what it should be.

I've had the flash on my n55 for about a few months now I like it but like everyone is saying "d" mode doesn't feel that great when you put your foot down compared to the stock trans firmware but of course everything else about the flash feels great .. my favorite is the rev matching downshifts

I actually like the Alpina D mode for normal driving. It is nearly seamless and great for stop and go traffic (no lurching, trans doesn't get confused). I also like that the trans won't easily kick down to 5th from 6th when accelerating at highway speeds like the stock tune has a tendancy to do. It is easy enough to down shift using the paddles if you really need to get the car moving.
