Hello guys,
I was driving last night around 30mph at 4th gear (10 speed transmission) and I accidently pressed paddle shift twice. First it shifted down to 2nd gear then to 1st gear. As soon as I depressed gas pedal, my car jerked and It felt like I suddenly brake. After that, I saw car shifts to 2nd gear. Did i do any damage? I wonder why my car jerked at 1st gear then I depressed gas pedal? I remember back in the time when I did 0-60 with drag strip mode, my car didn't shift to 2nd gear until redline and around 40mph.
Thanks.

Probably caused no harm. If you were in Sport mode or Sport+, once you press a shift paddle you are in charge of all shifting and it won't leave manual control until you turn it off, by holding the right paddle for 5 seconds. The stock computer won't let you do anything harmful. If you have a tune, that's another story.
