AT Owners...High Revving Experience?
To all AT owners:
Are you experiencing high revving at low speedsin auto mode? For instance, going from 0-30 mph and your rpm goes up to about 2.5-3.5. Is this normal?
What are your thoughts on the gear transition? Is it smooth or is there a lag between gears?

not sure what you mean about the high reving. if im in auto mode..and going say 30...i can get it to shift down two gears by adjusting my throttle input.
i really like the auto in the 350Z. the shifts are very quick and easily controlled. especially in manual mode...if you keep your foot in it and shift, it's much faster than i could ever shift a manual. actually cant wait to get to 1200 miles so i can hook up the gtech to see how fast it is.
about the only "complaint" i might have is that sometimes i find it alittle difficult to get it to shift at exactly 4000 rpm in auto mode...if i get on the accelerator, then let up slightly around 3800rpm, it doesnt want to shift until around like 4300rpm..then if i let up even more it acts alittel awkward.

yes normal
I've noticed the shift point seem to be linear with the position of the throttle. Putting it to the floor will result in red line shifts.
Half throttle will put you in the 3K range. I think the throttle position is sampled and the tranny shifts accordlingly.
Regarding transition, seem very smooth all the time. However higher rpm's seem to have less lag in manual shift mode.
It's easily the best auto tranny I've ever driven.

In auto mode the RPM rage sounds about right. What you may be experiencing is the exhaust sound. It tends to have a semi-aggressive note at low RPM, which can lead you to believe you are at a higher RPM. The manual mode does shift very quickly, but I do wish it didn’t have that slight lag.
