MCT issues

Hey all, I've noticed, only on the odd occasion, on my 2013 63 once reversed out of the driveway/parking spot etc & shifting into 'drive' I have no drive for a second or two, then the trans decides to engage (usually mid-rev) with a nice clunk like I'm dropping the clutch & operate as per normal.
Has anyone else experienced this in their fl cars before? Cause?
I'll be mentioning it to the dealer next service to see if they can duplicate the problem.
Cheers for your input on this.

Yes. The MTC is slow to engage either drive direction (either reverse or drive) from neutral. Sounds normal to me.

P.S. - your car is a "face-lifted" C63, not a "pfl".

My bad, had pre facelift on my mind.
So nothing to be too concerned about then.

Yes, same here. I was concerned as well that my brand new car did that. Then I came here and saw it is "normal" for the MCT. I don't like it, but now I just wait until I feel that it is in gear before I press the accelerator. Otherwise you get the huge clunk sound that is obviously not good for the car.
