Default 991.2 PDK shifting smoother than 991.1 in sport plus

I drove a .2S in sport plus. It shifts much smoother than my .1S. My S gives you a pretty abrupt rough shift in sports plus. I wonder if the dealer can program the .1 to shift similar to the .2?

The .2 has a dual plate clutch, that might explain the difference.

I feel like mine generally shifts smoother in sport/sport+ than normal. Anyway the dealer can run a PDK learning program to maybe resync your transmission to your engine if it's super rough.

I believe the .1 and .2 PDK units are mechanically the same but .2 probably has updated software that likely does shift more smoothly.

There are two PDK 911 transmissions. The PDK and PDK-S (GT3). Perhaps the factory put in the wrong transmission
