like moisture and temperature of the air. The cooler/damper the better. I asked dealer to check if ECU had the latest software, they confirmed it did.

So, when I got the car back from them I noticed some change in response but only in automatic mode. When I play manual shifting it feels much more responsive.

i'll do more testing, but i did notice change in responose in automatic mode,as I mentioned the engine noise islouder at high rev and acceleration feels more sluggish.

Sorry I can't give you much of the info, since my Outtie is 2.4 and CVT, which is quite different.

My other observation was that the engine's noise came down after the first oil change.

On the rub the drop of the draided factory filled oil felt a bit gritty, however looked clean enough.
