Did a search on "downshift" and "transmission" and couldn't find anything on this.
I just picked up my '06 a few days ago and one thing I've noticed so far is the tranny seems resistant to kicking down with part throttle application. For example, after rolling through a low-speed turn at an intersection, if I push the accelerator moderately I can hear the engine kind of bogging/lugging. I know lugging is the kiss of death for a fresh engine, so I either have to granny it or jump on it a little to force a downshift...which will get old after awhile.
Anyone else have similar experiences?
From a standing start, everything is fine--part throttle shifts are nice and crisp. I like to redline 1st and 2nd once per hundred miles for the first 1,000 miles on a fresh engine and the one full throttle blast I've done so far was great!
