1. You are right D1 to D8 on display and S1 to S8.
As for 40mph and being in 8th gear, it is not that annoying... it still holds the gear for few seconds if you need to speed. Also, I am 50mph and still in 6th gear then once I am done and cruising at 50mph it drops to 8th gear
Not sure what is 205 option.
4. Probably.can be done on custom license, but I want full torque available in all gears so I didnt care to look into that. Pretty sure they set that limit to make car slower vs trans cant handle it. They (BMW) need to make sure all models have different characteristics.
Now I just want to see if this has impact on 0 to 60 and 1/2 mile times.
