Once again a well written op.

Ok I was being nice your op talks about both cars. If you reread my post the hesitation returned just like the reset you describe in your op and my mpg went down .5. I think the D cars have it to but I am not 100% I think I read a few reviews that talked about the hesitation. Don't be sorry it did not work. If it fixed the hesitation, it would work for all cars with the new version of software. but I guess you could call bs on me it's the Internet after all.

Look at the big picture the 550 has none, 535 a little, and the 528 the most. What does that mean? Guess what a smaller engine is on for 2012. BMW has no choice if they want to keep making M cars. It's all about regulations. Think what you want and if you don't like the car sell it and move on. Life is to short to be unhappy. I was just trying to save you time and stress. Sorry, if you were offended and I hope you get what you desire.

Not sure if I stated it but I hate the hesitation especially after driving my wife's car. I think my brain is programmed to just hit the gas harder.

No disrespect to anyone that told him you got better mpg. If you did please post your view on this. Is your hesitation back? I would love to read others views.

Peace
