I find that in the S mode, under full throttle,when accelerating from a stop, there is a perceptible lag of 1-2 tenths of a second between each gear enough so that it feels as if it's a manual transmission being shifted, although quite well. I find it disconcerting and wonder if there is a torque converter lapse. Should it be felt as stepwise progression or should it be just a continuous flowing feeling?
