M340i paddle shifters tutorial?
hello all,
I am new to this forum and just got an M340i. I am still breaking it in but wanted to eventually start using the paddle shifters as I have owned quite a few cars with manual transmission. I have never had a vehicle with them so I am not sure how to use them properly. I was wondering if there is a good tutorial video you guys have seen that you can recommend. I searched YouTube but the ones I have seen so far are not that good. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks. |

Drive it exactly like you would a manual. Upshift when you would get on the clutch and shift up a gear and vice versa.

And you can use the paddles with gear selector in D or S. In D, the car goes to M when using the paddles but goes back to D when you don’t use it for a bit. In M/S, it stays in M (if I remember correctly). Also in M/S, the car doesn’t upshift if you’re using paddles. It will bounce off the rev limiter waiting for you to do it.
