Reverse after DCT updates

Is there anyone out there that has had a recent DCT update and found as a result that it appears to take an age for reverse gear to engage?

Yes, same here. But I'll take that any day over it taking an age to engage gears when moving forwards!

I think you have to come to a complete stop before you put it in reverse.
I have tried it rolling a fraction which didnt make the car happy.
