Had the update done. Trans shifted good for about 400 miles, but now it’s right back to the same ****** harsh shifting in sport mode.

I have learned (no pun intended) that the transmission learns your behavior. That means if you use sport mode only when gunning it (like I did) then the shifting will get harder and stay rough. If you (for a few days) also use sport in city/casual drive, you’ll find it easing off on the harshness of the shifts. Don’t get me wrong, sport shifting is always faster/harder than the regular mode but it will adapt!

Of course... the disclaimer; this is my experience. Yours might be different.

I agree. I’ve been running normal mode with Cobb AC and it feels like it’s getting lazy.

This was the third attempt at this transmission. Good thing is I know the service manager at my dealer, who also owns a raptor, so he is great to deal with. We tested resetting the trans and updating it 3 different ways. Twice after the reset I drove it for about 400 miles each, and once he actually had the truck and drove it for 300 miles. Each time after the reset the truck was driven completely different. The first time I drove in sport mode like I stole it. The second time was in sport mode also, but I was gentle with the truck. Trying to stay out of boost as much as I could. Both times the trans ended up right back where it is now. Shifting like shit in sport mode. Lol. But this was over the course of 4 months or so.

I’m hoping Cobb’s trans tune helps the shifting issue with these trucks while in sport mode.

Well FFS... Stage 2 kit showed up this week. Opened up the boxes this AM to find a damaged intercooler. Apparently they are out of stock now at CJ Pony for a couple of weeks which blows right past my 1 free weekend of no wife or kids next week to get this done. So frustrating!
