Default Slow shift

Does your PDK shift slower in manual when cold?

Could be, but I haven't really noticed anything unusual. Maybe it's because with the engine cold I'm going easy on the throttle so a slower pace on the shifts seems normal.

Definitely shifts slower until around 145f engine temp. Bit of a protective mode for the car. My c2 was same way.

I only drive my GT3 Manual an when it is cold it shifts noticeably slower. No big deal. Living in Chicago I am used to his. All of my previous toys were similar. When it is 30 - 45 outside it usually takes 10 min before things get warmed up
