This makes sense. I usually never go above that threshold anyways. Where I live is a bit of a windy back road with lots of deer. In the mornings and at Night I usually never actually put it into manual mode until I'm actually in town and can kind of open up and put my foot down a bit. I was genuinely curious if there was some sort of like way to avoid this and i suppose maybe thats what I've done wrong. (selecting manual too soon)

The transmission is awesome. It's nothing like the PDK from Porsche or a DCT but I really enjoy using the paddles. I think for what our car is the shift times are good. Just spooks me when the car drives like that sometimes.
