Maybe PDK is not for me. My SportShift AMV8 is never in "D"...

        Then maybe you are not the one for any DCT since even California's DCT works very good in auto mode and Ferrari worked very hard to achieve best possible auto mode.

Prediciton for all DCTs usage is 85-95% auto or D mode.

Think about DCTs as unusual blend of manual and automatic.

BTW, sequential manuals are DEAD. In the future gearbox market world wide will be:

30% manual(since most small cars sold in EU and ROW are manuals. I know that USA market is different)

35% DCT

35% Automatic

Agree. Smiley

One thing, Kreso: if you predict 85-95% auto/D use for DCT, then I really wonder if it's the right tranny for a car like the F142. In the F430 I use auto mode perhaps 5%, rest is puddleshift. And this ratio isn't like this because of a bad auto mode (in fact it could be better, but it's far from being bad), but because it is so much fun to flip through the gears whenever you want. I really wonder if DCT can give the same feel. Smiley
