holding entry inconsistent

Just flew the missed approach procedure at SBCF (ILS rwy 16X/CF007) :"climb on track 161° to 3700' turn right hdg 312° proceed direct ILTAX climbing 5000' holt ILTAX (right turn)the hold parameters/data were the following ones on the FMC/CDU :FixILTAXQUAD/RADIALSW/223°INBND CRS/DIR043°/R TURNLeg Time1.0 minjust after the GO maneuver was executed, I re-engage AP1 with VNAV and LNAV modes activated. As I was flying direct to ILTAX at hdg 312° climbing 5000' I was expecting, when reaching the fix, a parallel entry (entry sector 223°/333° leads to a // entry) and then a left turn to hdg 223° parallel and opposite to the hold inbound track 043° before flying the final left turn inbnd ILTAX fix.Instead of that the a/c turned to the right ? as if it was exiting the hold while not instructed to do so ???I was thinking the excellent PMDG 737 NGX add-on was able to fly correct hold entry depending the hold data + the inbound track to the fixRight or wrong ?

just found this :http://forum.avsim.net/topic/344695-parallelopposite-holding-entry-little-weird/apparently SP1 did not fix any issue related to the way the NGX flies hold entries. I suggest to fly them with LNAV disabled and HDG enabled

yes it's good enough, but it doesn't tell me if the NGX is able to fly correct hold entries depending both the inbound track route and the hold entry sector.I don't know about "direct & tear-drop" entries yet, but I'm afraid the NGX does not fly parallel entry as it should !
