Guys who are doing the 25sec Reset , please post your results, i am waiting for them!
Also, does this reset have to be done every time before starting the engine, or like, whats the frequency? is it a one time thing after installing the SB?

Maybe we should bring up other things that we may have missed. Are you guys aware of the cruise control?

I did it, big difference between my 2nd and 3rd gear, no more jeerking. Also, my gas milage increased of about 60 miles or 100 km(no kidding).

its got to hurt the mpg when in DS as the shift points are much higher in the rev band and lower gears are held onto longer. Ive never ran the car consistently in DS to notice a difference, but Im wondering if anyone has noticed a drop in mpg with constant DS use

I routinely reset my transmission on my 545i and X5 too! 
In fact my wife now comes home and says "I think you need to reset my transmission, the car's not driving right!" 
All the years I have known my wife, she's NEVER been concerned about this kind of stuff, so you know it MUST make a big difference! Try it and see, I suspect you too will be making this part of your maintenance for your car too!
