Down shift from 2nd to 1st
Maybe its just a function of the BS but *sometimes* (20% of the time) when I down shift from 2nd to 1st It feels as though the gear slips and the car accelerates without any throttle being applied.
Anyone have this happen?

Is this your first MCT? I get a similar "lurch" occasionally going from 2nd to 1st. It almost feels like the clutch is being re-engaged too quickly (like when you were first learning to drive a manual). I get the impression this is just the MCT being not that great.

I constantly downshift to 1st on my MCT and I never had that. Does it actually push you forward or could it be just an impression because there is no more engine braking for a split second?
