My '87 535is automatic seems to produce the greatest power when the pedal is about halfway through its range of motion. Pushing the pedal to the floor produces noticeably less power. Ease up on the pedal and the scalded cat effect comes back. The ideal position seems to be at almost exactly the point where the transmission kickdown occurs. Any thoughts?
