It was extremely difficult to be in between, which is where I generally drive once it's warmed up - let's call it "taking off confidently", neither being a jerk nor a limo driver, shifts in D around 3k-3.5k going up the gears.
After reset - super easy to be gentle, "confident" or aggressive - whatever you wanted. Then it learned to suck. At least that's the way I remember it.

Interesting thread. This was the *exact* behavior on my '15 335i/N55. The abrupt almost violent take off from a stop was super annoying, but better for a couple weeks after a throttle adaptation reset.
Never tried xHP though. I always wondered if it was some sort of "disconnect" between throttle and transmission.
(No longer have the issue, as I've now got a '16 550i.)
Dzz, did the xHP upshift adjustments make take off from stop any better?
