C63 slow revs

I have noticed that my C63 seems to rev slower sometimes for no apparent reason,
I thought it might be the wheel slip-slide or the mode it is in but i tried it when stationary and noticed that sometimes it revs up a bit slower as if maybe an air intake is blocked.
At other times if i blip the throttle it will fly past 3k revs and gives a mighty bark similar to a cold start but when its revving slowly it 'climbs' up the revs.
Thats the only way i can explain it.
Has anyone else experienced similar?

Normally it will happen once or twice and then return to normal.
Always filled with Shell optimax.
Happens when engine warmed.

Why worry it's under warranty, let the dealer resolve the problem.
 
The throttles are sensitive to when in D or R or P/N....
Mine will not always rev aggressively on throttle bl20example.
When you switch to reverse the throttle is twice as sensitive"ish".

ACID may have a map to over write that.

Because most Dealers don't know S**T about anything, they have your car in and out forever changing everything and getting nowhere, then someone from a forum like this who has had a similar problem says-try this.

Forums tend to have more knowledgeable people.
 
Could it be a fuel issue my idles like crap sometimes bounces a little and then struggles a bit like yours I've but it down to not using shell all the time
 
There's a bunch of M3 guys who have issues with V-Power Nitro who report the same issues.
I'll be honest, I'm quite new to capable NA engines but, I know that at least for my turbocharged lot that if they don't like something then timing will be retarded to protect the engine.
 
I think its normally tbh, Mine sometimes revs more freely than others like its the loud peddle that seems to be more sensitive than others. I have read others say the same thing. I either thought it was a throttle issue like on my previous Audi S3 you could make it more/less sensitive with a throttle map or thought it was a cooling issue as all the facelift cars have cooling issues other than the black series.

If we can make the throttle pick up quicker instead of being a bit lazy I would love to know
