2010 E63 Transmission Questions.

This is the first car I've owned with a auto/double clutch transmission.

I've noticed even on Comfort mode at a stop it seems like the car sits in neutral even though in the "AMG" display it shows that the car is sitting in 2nd gear.
Once I accelerate from a stop it feels like the transmission is "slipping" that it remains in neutral for that split second and then goes into gear and you can feel it in the back of your seat.

Is this normal?

I'd post this in the AMG SL63 forum. It's the same tranny (everyone here either has the 5 speed or the 7 G tronic)

There were early issues with this tranny in the SLs but I think MB resolved it since.
