Reply With QuoteThat’s pretty normal. At a busy intersection I will click it into Sport mode which makes a difference.
The gearbox will ‘learn’ and adapt to your style if you drive with a heavy foot.

As previously noted, the gearbox has a delay when coasting slowly and the throttle is applied, before picking a gear and taking off. I have a v6 petrol and don't notice the lag from standstill. I understand its the gearbox not knowing what gear to be in and so not picking anything until you give it some throttle input.
I get around it by either using sport mode at roundabouts, or lightly touching the throttle as i coast up to the intersection so that the gearbox is in gear when I need.
I've also heard putting it in sport and driving like you stole it for a couple of days can also help.

SupporterI am the one in the second post on that thread. My car has never had the brake switch problem return and is now up to 275000. Must be a Sydney driving thing with lots of braking. The car came from Sydney but has been used on mainly country driving and touring around Australia since I have had it and drove it to WA.Originally Posted by BrianElloy
Brian beat me to it but if it is a really excessive delay, not the normal significant delay, it could be the brake switch.
