Took my 545i in to get the harsh 2-1 gear changes everyone is experiencing fixed. They ended up just updating the software and now it runs great. Just wondering if there's any chance of the harsh shifting coming back or if anyone has had it come back after getting it done?

Came back after about a week. Come and go. But definitely less frequent.

Really.....have you taken it back to the dealership? Would they just reprogram it again?

Nothing else to change after applying the upgrade. Reset the transmission helps a little.
