Transmission shift points

Does anyone know if there is an update for the transmission? I noticed today that mine feels like a drunk 16 year old learning stick for the first time, especially in the lower end while in traffic.

I've noticed mine is bit balky at very low speeds - i.e. when starting to move forward but then taking my foot off the gas (most notable when I turn onto my street and essentially roll thru at about 20mph. Not harsh, just feels like it momentarily can't figure out where to be.

I don't think they have figured it out yet or just don't care.
Mine is most noticeable on cold start up, and I live in Florida!!!

Yeah, Florida here as well - northeast transplant from '04 and never looked back. My issue isn't cold-start sensitive, just happens at certain low-speed actions.

That’s an accurate description of what’s happening. Can’t pick a gear when feathering the throttle in traffic. Almost feels jerky. Otherwise, it’s really smooth driving around.

Mine has less than 100 miles on it and I got an Electronic Control Throttle fault. Essentially, I am experiencing the same thing very cluncky when just trying to ease through the first few gears in traffic. Its not turbo lag as I am familiar with that, its more of a jerky acceleration issue. Taking it into dealership on Friday to see what they come up with.
