Can The Transmission's Shifting Be Improved ???

[2020Raptor]

The 10-speed transmission's bad shifting is ruing my Raptor experience.
I drive in Sport mode 100% of the time.
Sometimes it holds a gear waaaaaay too long and sometimes shifts much too harshly.

The 8-speed transmission in the Dodge shifts perfectly.
Appropriately holding gears and shifting smoothly, smartly, and without slop.

I rode in a Raptor with a tuned transmission, but was not a complete solution.
It no longer over-held gears, but the shifting was sometimes very rough and felt a bit odd.

Can anyone improve this transmission's operation to where it should be ???

Goostuned can fix it!

Yea, it can be improved. You need either a Cobb or a custom Goosetuned TCM tune.

Sport mode will hold the gears longer. If you wanna rip thru gears, try tow/haul mode.

I have Cobb TCM tune. I never had harsh shifting but the TCM tune smoothed the gears out.

I am not sure on what year yours is but, my 17 and my buddies 20 are worlds different. his shifts are noticeably better in almost any scenario. I have heard getting a trans relearn done at the dealer can work, I just haven't done it because it doesn't bother me enough to be turn it in with zero rentals available.

Goosetunes with the TCM option, totally different truck

This. I even compared his trans tune to the COBB tunes and it is an improvement over theirs.

Many options for that. I like my MPT tune however if you drive in sport mode any tune will hold gears as that is what it is designed to do. It tries to keep you in the rpm band for instant boost.

^^^ This. Sport mode is just plain annoying unless you want to drive like a retard. I only use "retard" because my first ten choices will get replaced by asterisks. I mean it in full respect to all of you developmentally delayed people out there.

Thank you for being considerate of my disability. I agree about not liking the sport mode either, because of how it hangs onto the gears. It's fun in the dirt if I am driving it like a dirt bike. I've gotten used to just leaving it in Normal.
