There is a fix that your BMW dealer will have that reprograms the downshifting problem in both the regular and sport modes.

Switching to sports mode is even worse. It puts the shift points higher in the rpm range, but it still seems to function like it is intended for a torque band that this engine doesn't have. The dealer says this is normal, but I can't hardly believe that. the only way I can drive the car is manually.
