At least it's not as bad as this review of the 435i:



I don't know what these guys generally review, but if you don't even know what size the rims are on the car that you are reviewing, why do you even bother reviewing cars?

Has anyone seen worse?

It's interesting that the video seems to have been permanently removed... That must be the ultimate humiliation for a journalist when your video review first gets posted, removed and edited as errors are discovered. Reposted for a short time in the edited version and then permanently removed...

Noone that adds that much weight to the car should be reviewing the vehicle's performance

DCT is not jerky. I own one, so I'm qualified to say so. Is it 100% like a conventional slushbox? No - you and the car can get out of step sometimes. It takes all of about 5 minutes to get the feel for it.

I love DCT
But
But -

But to be not biased compared to 550i 8 speed AT By ZF,
DCT can be found jerky at times and usually when you forget it on Super Sports and dial revs up to level 2 or 3 then you will find it jerky at low speeds but because of you forgetting it in the FUN FUN mode -

So when in comfort or sports rarely jerky!!
