Hi, all. I'm experiencing rough idling on ignition and rough manual shifting -- especially from gears 2 down to 1 -- on my new 2011 GX with less than 150 km on it. Is this expected behaviour from a new non-broken-in M3?
The rough idling is surprising because the external temperature is around 20 C and there's not much humidity or opportunity for condensation inside fuel lines, etc. I've not experienced anything like this on a brand new car before, like my 09 Corolla.
The rough shifting (in Sport mode) may just be because I'm a moron and don't know how to shift properly, but the transitions between gears are frequently not smooth. Sometimes the gearshift takes a long time to complete. Sometimes the transmission goes clunk. I'm experimenting with RPMs and throttling on gearshifts, but I've not found a formula, especially for downshifting, that works.
I'd be grateful for anybody's comments on these.
