In D it seems to manage itself better when downshifting in everyday traffic.
DCT only downshifts in S (manual) mode to prevent the car from stalling or when you come to a complete stop it will drop it down to 1st. Otherwise, there is a chance in S mode you will bog your engine quite badly if you're slowing down but don't come to a complete stop and need to accelerate again.

Interesting. If you can get it on video that would be ideal.
