At low road speeds, I find anything approaching 1500ish RPM's on coast down or braking is where it likes to automatically down shift. I just flick down as i drop below 1800, and find it to be in the right gear with limited rev matching 90% of the time.
In parking lots or very slow roads (< 30 mph), I usually just keep in in D for ease, otherwise I'm just lumping around in 3rd and dancing between that 2nd and 4th.
It would be nice to turn off the automatic downshift feature, but overall, I'd say the 7AT is a soli 9.5/10 on performance and predictability.
