7Gtronic odd behavior
Hi
The otherwise flawless 7-speed tranny presents the following odd thing.
While trying very slow,just putting pressure on the pedal,to drive into my garage the gear in use momentarily disengages/slips producing this jerking motion giving me the annoying impression I touched the wall.
Has anyone knows or witness the same behavior?
Thanks

It happened to me in several occasions. Driving under 25 mph , i.e. in crowded roads , if I put a minor pressure on the gas pedal, the tranny seems confusing between 3rd and 2nd and 1st gear; it jerks, disengages, re-engages..... the dealer said that is normal .
