I have 1900 miles on it, so I had hoped to have it broke in. Bought it at 1830 miles, so no telling wha tthe previous owned did.
The throttle seems very, very sensitive on backing off the when shifting. Only a few degrees of throttle change seems a huge difference when around RPM around 2000-3000. It drops to idle almost immediately. Any advice is welcome.
Try not rolling all the way off on the throttle, just roll off enough to go below the RPM of the next gear, if you know what I mean. Like when you're downshifting and you rev-match to the next lower gear to limit clutch/driveline wear? Do the same thing on upshifts and it'll be smoother.
