r17 autostick issues.

SolidOrange · Post by **SolidOrange** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 10:03 pm

Vehicle: 2006 Charger Daytona R/T
Predator Update: r17
Other Info: 93 CAI tune, increased shift points, increased shift firmness.

Problem:
when the car is in autostick, it does not upshift under heavy throttle until i let off the gas pedal. for example, if i am in autostick 1, stomp the gas, then upshift twice the dash will show 3 but the transmisison has not shifted at all. it will not shift up until i either lighten my foot significantly or, in some cases, take it off all together. also, autostick only shows 1-4 and D... but i can live with that.

any help on either of these things??

also: i can select any gear i want while at a stoplight but it will always start in 1 regardless of what gear i have selected and displayed on the dash.

please help!

update:

i just tried removing the increased shift firmness and increased shift points, but it is still acting the same.

this is going to sound crazy, but someone on chargerforums (X E Ryder) suggested i return the car to stock, then disconnect the battery for an hour, and try reinstalling the tune. IT WORKED!!!

The car is behaving perfectly! Autostick shifts are now immediate and i can only choose between 1-2 (either of which work) from a stop. The Autostick gears are also now displaying 1-5 and D.
