Thanks, I should have also added that specs vary between market and build year. In the U.K they stopped selling petrol xDrive [end of 2018 I think] and was told the reason was gearboxes and wanting slightly better emissions figures which DCT/DSG boxes give.

In contrast I am not sure if any U.S F48 have DCT/DSG boxes, perhaps someone can advise? Anyhow, question is whether it is just the Aisin boxes that have launch control or do the DSG have it as well, or whether it has to do with engine size?
