[QUOTE="B33mEr, post: 618033, member: 13609"] It will overheat if you don't feather the throttle. It's not the gearbox ( gearbox is SOLID) it's the hydraulic system and the electronics that will overheat. So during traffic jams you have to be real smooth, no prodding of the pedal. Yes the car start to move around 1500 - 1800rpm or even higher from my experience when overheat. i would recommend you to test drive the SMG again but during peak hours say around lunch time and see whether you can live with it or not :4: If you still set on buying it thentry to get a written warranty from the car dealer (3-6 month should suffice). It will give you griefs for sure but that's where this thread comes in handy where owners share information everything about SMG plus the driving experience and pleasure it gives (for me anyway) makes up for it LOL keen drivers need only apply hehehe [/QUOTE]
