V35 Coupe Auto - Blip Throttle To Rev Match On Downshift?

[jaik]

I thought I read somewhere that the Autos do some rev matching by "blipping the throttle" when downshifting in manual mode? Did this only apply to later 05 06 models? My 03 certainly doesnt seem to do it, but I can do it myself

yep, my 05 does it.

I've also read that it's 05 and later only.

It's quite good when down shifting from higher revs, but a bit jolty when you down shift under 3500rpm (usually 3rd to 2nd).

Sound wise it sounds like a manual car.

Well you can push the shifter down (or up if you mod the shifter) and just as you press it blip the throttle - after some practice it works ok
