superchip>trans

has anyone else had problems using superchip flaspaq and transmission shifting weird between 1 and 2. I replaced the trans filter and changed the fluid in it today and shifted fine, then put in the superchip to fuel saving and it started to mess up again.

I've heard the SC and Edge stuff does weird things with the trans. Never ran them myself, but I have seen others' posts. What year is your truck?

i have a superchips flashpaq as well, i bought it this spring. i haven't had problems with 1 and 2 but 3 and 4 give me some trouble when it's near wide open in Heavy Tow mode. the transmission is "hunting". have you gotten online and had your tuner recalibrated? i believe the tuners programming just needs to be fine tuned. unfortunatley i can't get online and recalibrate mine due to some computer error. Sorry i'm not much help but i just wanted to let you know my thoughts and share my problem with the tuner. i know it was the tuner though, when switched to max performance or any other program it's fine.

I tried every mode doesn't matter how I hard I drive it doesn't shift. Once the turner is off it shifts fine

I ran a Superchip from '03 to '07 and I didn't have any problems, untill I got a DP-TUNER. I thought the Superchip was the bong, but the DP-TUNER is hands down better in every way.

The Bong..I'm with Rick, I had the 1705 and had zero problems with mine and I thought it was the Bomb, lol..One thing I can add, when I dropped my trans pan to put in my VB, not sure whats normal clutch dust debri but it was all over my magnetic pan bolt. I didn't take pics to compare with others here. Sounds like its time for some custom tunes. If your SC tuner reads codes I'd advise you hold onto it, I did, its great for that..
