Should be no reason at all to need to do that with the 7AT to get smooth downshifts. I don't. It will already blip to revmatch anyway.

also SRM on MT isn't all that smooth at lower rpm with light braking. it is only smooth on moderate to aggressive braking/downshifts. so i tap the throttle to help rev match during light braking/downshift. might be the same on AT's. |

The 7AT has a strong downshift especially in the lower gears. I rather like it because that's how it's supposed to feel. This is not a luxury car for smooth shifting. If you shift a G37 7AT it feels weak as sh1t
