hello guys,
I was wondering everytime I tried to downshift like 6 to 3 while using tiptronic, it goes so slow...like 6 to 5 takes a few sec, then like 4 to 3 with a lot of lags..(and slow again)
Everytime I try to pwn some f*****s on the highway, I can't because of this. It downshifts so slow that by the time it gets to 3rd gear, they are already gone..

This is time when I'm starting to hate my automatic transmission...
I also have Altima 2.5 and when I press the gas all the way down, it has that click thing automatically downshifts like 6 to 3 or 2 whatever depends on the speed. Does 370z have that? I remember when I tried it, it didn't have it.
maybe I'm going to trade in for manual transmission later on..
