I wouldn't be surprised, cause I find the 135i Auto gear change bl00dy fast! In contrast I was recently back in my 4 year old 120i (and wondering how I put up with its lack of power for 3 and half years...) and trying to play with the manual auto mode. Firstly it generally rejected 4 out of 5 down change requests that the 135i would accept, and then the up changes were very slow - felt like a second delay. Of course it was quicker than a second, but nothing like the speed of the gear change in the newer 135.
