Does that not speed up the gear changes though? On a test drive i found the gearbox a bit slow and more like a conventional auto compared to the dct in an M3 where the changes especially using the paddles were much more crisp and instant. Someone who has one said put it in sport + it transforms the car and how it changes gear but i also dont want it to kill me

Yes it speeds up gear changes but it also tones down the traction control which is exactly what I did, wheel spin at 70mph on a motorway is frightening!!!

Just go easy with your right foot and enjoy!!

Sound like a good spec. Drive home with the windows down so you can enjoy that noise.

Incorrect. S+ does nothing to the traction control.
