Automatic Transmission Redline Question

Hi All,



I'm pretty sure this question has been asked before but there's no harm in asking it again.



On a "normal" BMW auto transmission not the sport auto trans, when you tap the vehicle into "Manual"/"Steptronic" and redline the vehicle without shifting even though you're in "Manual" it automatically shifts to the next gear, Great.



Out of curiosity is this bad for the engine, transmission etc etc I don't think BMW would programme the vehicle to get to the point that the vehicle would be damaging itself?



I'm not saying redlining the vehicle all day everyday, I just find the vehicle pulls a touch longer when having it in manual and letting it shift at redline (When having a drag race or just spirited driving).



Thanks for your responses in advance :thumsup:
