... Don't worry about it. The 7AT won't let you downshift past the rev limiter.

I get those occasional delays when downshifting too, VERY annoying. Luckily upshifts are never delayed, THAT would suck.


I've bounced off the rev limiter a few times. Well, you don't really bounce off of it. I don't really see it as something to be concerned about, the rev limiter seems to be set pretty conservatively. When I was on the track, I was pretty much shifting at the limit for every shift. Even on the street I shift at red line a few times a week.
