A8 Shift firmness

JKLNHYD · 05-09-2016, 10:46 AM

Anybody else with the A8 wish that it shifted a little harder/sharper? Even using the manual shift or paddle shifters, it still seems soft. I personally like that 1-2 and 2-3 chirp and I have yet to hear it. I had a Diablo tuner for a truck that used to allow shift firmness adjustments. Can anyone confirm any of the available ones for the Camaro allow for adjustments like this?

I used a Diablo tuner for my c7 corvette, and now for my Colorado. It did improve things on the C7, not so much on the truck..I guess the A6 got better. No clue on the A8 though. Head over to the Corvette forum where they have lots more experience with this trans..
