Different car (535i), but same SAT.
I drive in different ways, but find driving in manual mode (stick or paddles) requires a lot of concentration, to be at optimum revs, as there is a lot of gear changing in normal day to day driving.
Normally leave in Drive as the autobox does a pretty good job on its own, and flick the stick across to Sport for rapid overtaking, then back to Drive. I have my car configured to chassis mode only, therefore the stick gets used for switching the gearbox to Sport mode, even when running in Sport setting on the toggle switch.
BTW, the return to auto function when using paddles does vary in my car according to how I'm driving, not a fixed time from my observation and experience.
