An X3M owner here with a lot of DCT experience wrote that the mechanical feel of the DCT is not there and that indicates the rubbery feel you talk about.
I guess manual might be an option though last manual I had was a 528i E39 from 1999

I hope so too. In the F90 I had to change gears in first and second at 5k rpm as otherwise I was hitting the limiter and then it was game over. Recovering from limiter seemed to take an eternity. Its a fast car yes but that doesn't explain the slow reaction of the transmission.
