SCT shift pressure?

My X3 gives me the option to adjust some things when I upload custom tunes, and I've noticed that my transmission is shifting really sloppily even after going through the relearn. So should I adjust the shift pressure between the gears? I noticed they're all set to 0%.

Bumping up the pressure with the tuner is fine. Sending an e-mail to your guy asking him to make them firmer doesn't hurt either. Be careful not to adjust the RPM shift points. If you lower one by accident you'll find yourself bangin off the rev limiter before you make it to OD.

Ok sounds good. Matt at Gearhead is who did my tunes. His shifts were great before so im not sure why they're sloppy now. Anyways...I'll play with it.
