Thanks for the info. Unfortunately we don't have the 25i (or28i) in the UK.

From what I can see, UK petrol models now get a DCT with electronic shifter and the Diesel cars get a "sports" auto transmission with electronic shifter.

I'm guessing the "sports" auto in the UK diesels is the Aisin, just like in your 25i, due to the higher torque whereas the 18i & 20i get the DCT.
