Not true. I tried to see if my "fill up" flare would go away if I shifted in manual mode. Nope, it still will do that. Same thing, it only flares that one time and then never again until the next gas stop. It's bizarre.Originally Posted by Eric_GT

i have the same condition after driving for a while if i shut the car of and start it back up within 5 min it feels like its holding the gear and then shifts. only does it for one time. This is my second tranny and both were doing the same exact thing.
This shifting issue has got to be with the TCM, right?

Is your TCM tuned?
the ecm talks to the tcm. the ecm tells the tcm how much torque it is delivering. ask your tuner about this. if he/she can/won't help, msg me and I'll put you in touch with someone

Anyone who has ever worked on a car has been in your position, and sitting cross-legged on a concrete floor with a dim shop light is its own kind of hell... Chalk it up as one of the rites of passage.

Happy with my DSteck tune. He is in MO. Since OP is in Texas might be worth a road trip to see Patrick G.

AFAIK, Pat G tunes still have 2-3 shift flare - at least mine does.
