I came to a full stop, turned off the DSC and put left on the brake and held it, race flag appeared, accelerator to the floor and RPMs held at 3000. When I released the brake, the car basically lurched a little and almost completely stalled before I let off the accelerator. I was afraid I broke something but got no warnings on the dash at all and the car drove fine after. After letting the car cool down for a few miles I tried a standing launch from a crawl in automatic mode and Sport +; the car accelerated but the car reached the rev limiter in 2nd gear and didn’t shift into 3rd on its own, I shifted after the RPMs bounced of the limited for a second or two. :-/

Any ideas what would cause this? Is this something I should ask my service advisor about at the dealership?

I've recently purchased an M2 (2017 LCI, DCT) and I've had the same issue. Did you find a fix for this 60HawkDriver83? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
