While I have yet to drive a G80, this makes me (and im sure many others) feel much better. I was never upset about the bigger grilles, weight, etc....loss of DCT was always my biggest concern. Thanks again.
You are welcome Hero . . . I am with you 100%.

Not much a fan of the G80/82 design architecture; bought it for the performance experience, a huge part of which pertains to manually controlling shift points and the shift character itself.

So, when the ZF8 manual mode shifts were so disappointing after some 600 miles, I was really bummed out . . . incase not obvious in this thread

I have no idea what the 'glitch' entailed, but feel rejuvenated for not only stumbling across the source of the problem, but also an easy solution to the problem . . . that might help a fellow enthusiast, such as yourself, in the future.

Best
