Also not sure if you can reset the adaptive transmission on these cars, I know this was a feature on the E60 but not sure if it is the same on the G-series.

I love everything about the new 750i except for the acceleration, even in Sport Mode. This is especially true when merging on the highway or passing other vehicles. I know that the G12 is a different type of car and other options such as the B7 and M760i were out there. I believe I have reset the adaptive transmission from the previous owner (put the car into ON and depressed the accelerator for ~1 min).

I would welcome any advice on potential performance upgrades/tuning that would improve acceleration without damaging the car or invalidating my warranty. Now that BMW and DINAN have ended their formal relationship (and the DINAN upgrade would invalidate my CPO warranty) there do not seem to be many options.

Thanks a lot!

Thanks Moopai for your feedback. I made an appointment with the dealer to have it reset. They said it can be done. Agree it performs better in Sport mode but would like more acceleration when passing or entering highway without changing modes. Might be the best option.
