Haven't read Roadcraft for years, and I've misplaced my copy.
One of the main things I took away from it was to make a separation between gears and brakes.
Not sure how you can apply this to s-tronic, though, unless you have paddles.
If anyone can enlighten me, otherwise it's off to Amazon to get a new copy.[/QUOTE
Can't you put the gear lever across to the manual position and change that way, I've got paddles but use the gear lever as well.
The book is a worthwhile read, lots of useful tips on observation links, anticipation and reaction designed to give the driver more time to react.
Limit point analysis for judging how tight a blind bend is is also something everyone should know about.
Content of the manual should be part of the knowledge test for all new drivers IMO.
