But is it normaly, that "ECU" lift gas before shifting in SMG?? Normally with manual transmission you lift gas almost same time while pushing the clutch pedal, so passengers in car do not even feel the shifting if driver is good, In my Z4 it is really annoying when it lift the gas before shifting.
If the new clutch help, I definitely change it, but I can't find the "connection" to my issue??

I think it says somewhere that you don't need to lift accelerator (or gas) pedal. In practice I think you can lift slightly for a totally smooth shift, otherwise you can just shift without any lift. There won't be a massive lurch forward or anything.
