^^^^

Does "fixed gears in Manual mode" mean that she won't shift automatically when near the red zone?

I find S-mode quite useful sometimes exactly because it does shift automatically. Unless I've misunderstood, this could be a backward step!

As for 60% faster shifts, it's not exactly slow as it is , is it.

^^^^ Jamie's words at SC when he saw the figures for the third time, ' it is what it is'

I'd love to have T_T back but doesn't look as though it's happening in the near future?

Well I have managed to replicate this. It did require a sustained 'hoofing' through the gears in D. The engine light then flashed for a period of time then stopped. I can't say for sure if this is exactly the same problem however I will be scanning the fault codes as soon as I get home and then a call to Superchips.

As said earlier it sounds as if they have pushed things a bit too far and personally speaking this was not what I wanted when going for Bluefin.

Sounds about right - mine usually happens after as you put it a prolonged hoofing ! and I mean WOT in 2nd, 3rd and then up to 4th.  Please post back your DTC's and what superchips tell you - they have prepared a revised map for me that drops power off at the top a little - don't feel that that is a fix.  I also miss the 2nd gear onslaught of the standard ED30 map !

Gareth

I spoke to them this morning and probably got the same response as Gareth.

Anyway I have downloaded the new map and I will be trying it out at lunchtime.
I am going to try and do some logs before I swap and after if the weather holds out.

Thats what the guy I spoke to said and to be honest I would prefer that.

As soon as I get the opportunity I will generate some logs and post them up. :smiley:
