My 2005 300C had a build even earlier than yours (02/04) and I had to get the TCM update. I didn't go through a dealer on this, I got an updated TCM from Mr. Incredible. Once I got the update, everything worked fine with the Predator for me. Hope you get this figured out.

For the 07 5.7, we would have to look into that.
The autostick option is not available for the early 05's, it is not supported in that application.

Thanks for the reply. It's not a big deal to me, I just want to know everything is working as it should. I got shift firmness, top speed, wheel size ...

Some people complain that after the car is babied for a day or two, that the tranny feels sluggish, reseting the adaptives should wake it up...

Thanks

So it sounds like it is exactly the same effect as pulling fuse 11.

Thanks[/quote]

Thanks Mike for the enlightenment. I didn't realize that the lower fan settings were incorporated into the tunes. I guess if you were using the stock tune with a 170 ...

I posted this one earlier but it is not getting any action and is sinking down the list so I am posting it again.

Note that my car is a 5.7, not an 6.1. Mike's reply to my original post assumed that I was talking about an SRT8 and I guess he assumed the question was answered.

"Well, I finally got ...

Yeah, leave the fan settings as they are, they'll work fine with the 170 stat.

Thanks

Yes, the stock fan settings will work but if you do not lower the fan settings, your engine will reach the higher stock temperatures when the car is moving slowly and you will not have the benefit of the 170 ...

Again I repeat, my car is a 5.7, not an SRT.

Well, I finally got an updated TCM (real early build 2005 300C) and now I have access to the TCM settings. I have the 8r18 version on my Predator. In looking at the menu map for 8r17, it shows the "Autostick Auto Upshift" setting under "Transmission" but my predator does not seem to have this option ...

Thanks for the definite reply, a least I know where I stand. Either sell it to another LX'er or try to get the TCM update. At least we have 4 dealers in the area to hit up for the update.

Are you saying that there are no tranny settings available in the tool?

Any word on whether this capability can or will be applied to the predator. I have my tune installed successfully to the car (build January 2004) but there are no transmission adjustments available to me. I prefer to be able to do it myself rather than spend the time trying to find a dealer to do it.
