Well I have test drive the E90 with the comfort stop but the car still stop with a jerk and my foot does a better job than the system :thumbsdown: . Oh well maybe a new software update should fix the problem.

Week 9 cars dont have it
The parts needed for DSC+ were only installed asof September 2005.
xi models got it earlier
A lot of you are confusing a Steptronic holding a hill with "hill start" control. All Steptronics hold a hill to some degree. You only feel hill start control in a manual because it will hold the car still for 2 to 3 seconds after you have relesed the brake on a hill before you get on the gas

Man, all of this even has me confused. What is Comfort Stop anyway? Some of you have mentioned Sept. 2005 cars. You mean model year 2006's?
Is this a non-US thing since I have heard nothing about this feature? Hmmm...

MY comfort stop...
Well, I can brake so soft you don't notice it...
Therefore I don't need DSC+... 
Was just making fun, since he and his wife have been passengers in my car...
