Drivelogic gearbox modes vs throttle configuration help
Discussion
1000 miles in on my X3 M comp (same ZF as M5) and still not clear on the gearbox ‘drivelogic’ settings (particularly vs the engine/throttle configuration). I’ve only had manuals before, so forgive me. In a manual M car things are 25% simpler.
I get that the engine/throttle changes throttle response etc BUT it also changes the point at which the car shifts.
BUT - the purpose of the D1/D2/D3 button on the gear stick is less clear. I get it IF it did what everyone says which is to control the speed or ‘aggressiveness’ of the shift - but it also seems to do (in part) what the throttle configuration button does by changing the point (revs) at which the cat shifts.
Can anyone charity exactly what it does and what the overlap is with the throttle configuration setting?
