| Hesitation on acceleration |
|
I bought my 12MY XS D4 two months ago swapping an 07MY S spec manual with 85k on the clock
Whilst the D4 seems better specification I am extremely disappointed at the performance compared to the D3
It has taken some time to get used to an auto rather than a manual and I initially put my concerns down to just getting used to an auto
However I am now beginning to wonder if I have an issue
Specifically in normal D mode I find the car very hesitant on pulling away quickly, for example at a roundabout, always seeming to slightly over rev changing at around 2500rpm and even then not smoothly.
I have tried driving in S mode which does seem to make the shifting of gears earlier and smoother.
The car has only done 35k
Am I worrying unnecessary or do I have a problem with the car and if so any ideas as to what would be much appreciated

Have a search on here, there have been a few threads on this subject, I don't think what your experiencing is unusual. If I recall, there was a software update to improve things, maybe yours hasn't had that. MY2012 D4 HSE Nara Bronze with some extra stuff
