The slam that I had was a software issue that was resolved by an update. It was really a harsh downshift into 1st, from 2nd, mainly if you were rolling to almost stopping and then hit the accelerator. Very annoying, but got the new software update and has not happened since.

Luckily I have no such problem.
My old E60 was not that smooth, I probably had the slam issue on that.
