Wait a minute, what? "No engine braking whatsoever"? I'm driving this car every day and it engine brakes like a boss on command every single time. When driving in sport plus settings, a simple, fast and fairly subtle stab on the brakes triggers downshift to lowest available gear and the car engine brakes beautifully- cracks and burbles galore.

I think part of the issue is people who are used to manual or dct and either haven't figured out how to get the most out of the zf yet, or just unwilling to learn. To state that the zf ruins the car is a bit much. BMW engineers know what they're doing.
