Lets play another game: keep the RPM at 3k. same deal, the RPM kept changing alone even though my foot was constant not moving ! I wished I took a video (from phone) of the rpm...it clearly was jumping back n forth in increments of 100 rpm or so...
HONK HONK! My light turned green, but I was just too busy playing footsy with my E90...
This could explain why I can never learn how to get a smooth shift on this car !! The car is not obeying my feet !! CDV, Drive-by-wire...soon they will have "allow me to press the brakes for you"
(still love my car though  )

Interesting ......... although I have to say, I decided to screw trying to get smooth shifts and just drive without thinking, and I'm actually shifting really smoothly now.
