I usually like to drive in S2 or S3 a lot and I like to downshift the DCT whenever I'm decelerating to a stop or a red traffic light because I like to hear the exhaust crack on each downshift with the Straightpipes. Does anyone think this is bad? My DCT seems fine and shifts smoother than ever.
I always downshift however usually no lower than 3rd unless I will be #1 at the stop and feel the light will go green.
