Is there anybody else that has input to this SIB 12-09-12 DME update? I'm taking my car in next Friday and want to make sure I'm not making a mistake in terms of losing exhaust note and a detune.

I would like to know the same thing. Losing Exhaust note doesnt really bother me but a de-tune does. A dyno run between the 2 would be a great comparison...
I want to do something though because the hesitation drives me nuts and is potentially very dangerous especially if it's raining. I may have the dealer do this when it's in for the battery cable recall. Mt wife's RSX is more predictable than my 1er when pulling away from a stop...just aint right..lol

I just got mine back from a reprogram, problem seems to have improved but not entirely eliminated, exhuast note gone but if anything the performance sees to have increased, dct still clutch spins for a sec or so before taking off like a rocket when It kicks back though. does anyone else experience this problem?

Hi, my car is doing this as well and my SA told me its because the TC is cutting the power because of the amount of torque the car has. Before i tell him about the update, I have a Cobb coming my way next week and wanted to know if that would help remedy the hesitation?
