[QUOTE="Riezal-R, post: 235141, member: 4475"] The jerky-ness im experiencing is not to the the point of puking.. but yes, it would be uncomfortable to a passenger who does not appreciate race-like gear shifts. After having done a little more research, i've come across such statements: [COLOR="Red"][I] "it does not change like an automatic and, to some, it feels weird that the acceleration pauses momentarily as it changes gears."[/I][/COLOR] This is exactly what im experiencing. The 'lag'. [COLOR="Red"][I] "Sounds to me like you might be trying to drive like an automatic. make sure ur lifting the gas on shifts."[/I][/COLOR] [I][COLOR="Red"]"Switch so Sport mode and the gears would shift faster. Less jerky."[/COLOR][/I] Is this how the SMG should be driven? Feedback from non-M3 SMG owners would be great. [/QUOTE]
