DS = S1 thru S5 or S6?

On my previous E93, DS (without using paddles) would start in 1st and shift up to 5th... it wouldn't go into 6th unless you shifted manually. In my X6 when I have it in DS (without using paddles), it starts in S1 and upshifts to S5. I haven't had it over 80 mph yet in S5, and I don't know if it shifts to S6 by itself at a higher speed. I've had my X6 for just over a week and don't have the manual yet (on order). Will it shift automatically to S6?

I don't think so...I just got out of break-in and will have to check..I know I've had it up to 70 and it stayed in S5..

I take it out of S mode once I reach highway cruising speed -- even more so than I did in my 5'er...
