7AT throttle lag

critical

This is dumb. It's not lag. It's the engine down shifting gears and taking you to redline. If you drove in M, you can leave it in 7th to pass people or simply be in the right gear already.

No it's not dumb; by definition it is lag. The question we are debating is the CAUSE of the lag.

The car redlines WHILE the transmission is hunting the gear; it is, in effect, in neutral.

Andrew - Being from Houston, I read your "intro" on Houston Z's FB page while you were in town. Sorry we didn't get a chance to meet.

No it's kind of dumb. It's easy to see they car is simply downshifting. I drove my friends Z because he said there was "throttle lag." Nope, he just drives in auto and the car shifts down 3 or so gears when you mash the pedal at around 45mph.

It doesn't do that.

Yeah... I guess maybe it's the transmission gear hunting depending on how much you mash it. But a full peddle press feels like 1...2....3 take off. That's why I have been trying to get used to the m mode. And it's kinda weird I guess but I kinda prefer the shifter nob over the paddles. I typically drive with one hand on the wheel in a relaxed state, not both hands on the wheel flicking paddles. And yeah.. Lag is lag it's a delay.
