I've done the TBA reset which makes the car a little bit responsive again and then drove around the town like an asshole for a week or so, but the responsiveness is now back to normal.

I had the same experience. I reset the throttle, and It seemed noticeably more responsive, for about 4 warm up cycles, and then back to normal. Sometimes the transmission seems "lazy" coming out of first, but other report the same thing. The 6spd auto, while relatively reliable, is old, and not very refined.

I do wish the 8spd had been available in the 35i. OR that BMW still put the 3.0L into the X1. I like the new X1's, but I'm not looking for 240hp...
