E55 then E63, now back to an E55
Transmission Learning Style

I bought a used car - is it true the dealer can reprogram the trans. so it can re-learn my driving style and the curve of acceleration, shift points, etc? What will this cost and is it worth it?
i.e. If the previous owner was a woman who babied the car, and I romp on it almost always, will this benefit me?
Thanks.

Sounds weird, but it really does work. Car will feel totally different after.

After the 3 mins, you should hear a tiny "click" in the dash somewhere. Not sure what it is, but seems like it happens right around 3 min mark.
