Can you guy help me: I have a new 2001 M and have just had my first service. I can now go above 5500 rpm. I find the torque a bit dissapointing and I feel a slight hesitation arounf 5000rpm on full throttle. Is this normal or should the car pull stronger after 5000 rpm??

From about 3000 to 5000 the torque is awesome, I just was really looking forward to using the high revs and getting even more of a kick..
