been using my Z as my DD for over 4 months now, and i take a canyon road to work so there are a lot of up/down hills. I never experience the problem you are experiencing, not yet anyways.

if you want more precision when it comes to shifting, a manual would have been better cause you will be in more control.

Hi.

What's wrong with using the paddles in M mode? Then 99% you will be making the decision when to change gear. Must make the driving experience more interesting!

P.S Did you not test drive the auto before buying it?

Yes. That step-off on the driver's side is normal.

I was intrigued by this whole HID concept when my wife got her first Murano a few years ago. I was annoyed by the sharp cut-off and the step-off on the driver's side and so was she. That car had a little dial where you could raise or lower the aiming, though. After a couple of months, neither of us ever bothered, and it wasn't until I read this post that I was even reminded that both the Z and her current Murano have those same HID side effects. You get used to it.
