Yes seems to be normal. As stated press throttle to floor and you will feel sw click. It will then force a change down if you really need it.
Throttle goes non linear due to adaptive setup. Throttle body can be reset by
1. open door
2. put key in ign and turn to run (not start)
3. press throttle to floor board
4. hold for 10 secs
5. turn key to off
6. release throttle pedal
7. wait 2 full minutes.
Start and drive a way.
Doesnt stay reset for a long time though, have to repeat above from time to time if it works for you.
