7AT throttle lag

gurneyeagle

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.
