Unfortunately it's likely the drive by wire, every BMW I've had/driven since my 2000 328ci ( which was prior to DBW) has suffered from varying amounts of lag due to it. Aftermarket software like Dinan can improve it but otherwise I've just relied on driving in sport modes with SMG, DSG or autos, and with a manual it just was a drag and had me looking at software upgrades. I really don't know why BMW is not improving the throttle responsiveness if they want to support the notion these are drivers cars
So it's worse on the 8 speed vs the 6 speed for sure?
