I'm wondering if they fixed the problem from the last generation.

Thanks.
When accellerating fast from a standstill: 6000rpm in first going fast to second it's not exactly smooth, you have to feel what you are doing, which can take longer than you want...
As I recall the ex E90 M3 and ex E90 335i, both MT were a tad smoother from 1-2.


This morning I did 4 of those sprints and the last one was the smoothest.

In normal driving there is nothing notchy about the 1-2 shift though.

So how can I get rid of the CDV

No F30 yet:

EDIT: If the CDV is removed or modified I 'm sure MY 0-100kmh times can be reduced with at least 0.5 seconds....
