Thanks! It's kinda on it's last legs sadly.
yeah, I'm noticing that with a lot of the newer transmissions, I think the companies are lost for what to do. I feel like it's an argument over comfort vs. emissions.
I had a debate at a dealership i worked at long ago at how the automatic was shifting too early and the engine was bogging down. The final answer really is that all of them are doing it to get every last drop of fuel on the EPA testing. In the real world however, it can cause carbon build up and let's face it, it is a bit hard on an engine when it bogs down. Long story short, average driver is going to get worse mileage with it, unless they drive like a grandma. But as long as it hits the EPA targets, people seem happy.
Love that version of the M5, just looks classy.
