In D (auto) mode, just step harder on the accelerator and you'll get a kick-down. If you want a double kick-down, just step all the way to the end and go past it to the 2nd stop - your car will take off like a rocket. In S (sport) mode, you'll find that the gearshifts are more lively anyway and will probably downshift on the way down the slope. You don't have to use M (manual) mode for normal driving - I never use it.
Experiment to find the best way for you to enjoy your UDM. :wink:
Maybe wrong run-in method..
"D" is for grocery..
"D" is for school..
"D" is for wet market..
"D" is for hair down cruising..
"D" is for parent or in-law in the car..
"D" by right u should not even need to put seat belt, thus the belt alert is so unnecessary..
Your bimmer won't rock in "D" and don't expect to gain full performance advantage of your bimmer in "D".
"DS" is still my favorite and some find driving in "DS" is more economical than using "D", that's because they are aggressive driver, so "D" is not so efficient, thus high FC.
"MS" is useless to drive because auto upshift kick in too early, real potong steam, I only use it to drop gear for engine braking.

Plenty Bro! Bolt on super charger, BMW Performance Intake System, Stroker kit, etc.
Sprint Booster does not improve torque and performance, it only trick the ECU by sending full throttle signal when u only press half on the gas pedal, and telling the throttle to go half when u only press a quarter way down in the gas pedal.. :wink: And u pay RM1k for that.. :stupid:
