If it feels like somebody hit you from behind.. No, that's not a feeling I've had in the X5M.. But have definitely felt that in BMW's before. For example, in my BMW 750i and in my X5 4.8is, I would say at least once a week a downshift would literally feel like someone just rammed us from behind. Scared the shit out of me more than a few times.

Hope it doesn't exist in the new models.
