always on edge Posted July 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Still shifting heavy, mostly from first and second, but I also found it on deceleration. Exiting the freeway this evening, it banged down the top three gears pretty hard and fast under moderate/heavy braking. After driving home with the stock tune and then reloading the 93 agg, this truck is night and day. Aside from the shifting issue and if that hose can hold, I'm very happy (again). Emailing LMS now about the shifting issue. Will update with the resolution. I will also ask about those codes it was throwing...when I reconnected the tuner this afternoon, there were no DTC's. I may try hooking up the tuner tomorrow (depending on what LMS wants to do) to see if those codes come up again with the 93 agg tune. Clearly the codes had nothing to do with the renegade, fun-killing hose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjh Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 I'm tuned with LMS and have pretty hard shifts, but I actually like it, for some reason. Racecar. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can take the harsh feeling, in tune with the road ride this Edge Sport gives me, but the hard shifts are something I can't handle. How long have you had the tune?

How long have you had the tune? About a month or so. Side note, where in Michigan are you located? I live in Grand Rapids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 There WILL be hard shifts as the PCM relearns any tune. If it doesn't smooth out after a few drive cycles or a couple of hundred miles, if you can wait, then have the tune revised for softer shifts.

037 Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 I never had hard shifts on the Edge with or without the LMS tune until I tried the paddles, which upshift smooth on their own and hard clunk down on deceleration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
037 Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Btw, there is an option for aggressive tune with harsh shifts, maybe you got that, it's only recommended for race tracks not daily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

always on edge Posted July 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 UPDATE: I received a thorough response from Anthony at LMS. All is good, I will keep the tunes (and hard shifts) I have. You guys have been a great help in advising me and I greatly appreciate your assistance, especially WWWPerfA_ZN0W and 037. Excerpt from the email with regards to the DTC's I encountered - "...flashing the vehicle will cause interruptions in power / communication between some of the computer systems in your vehicle while it's loading the file. This is one of the reasons why we suggest to flash the vehicle back to stock and then disconnect the battery cable afterwards to clear any residual memory before taking the vehicle in for service / maintenance. Doing so will ensure that you wouldn't have any DTC codes leaving a bread crumb trail towards having a tune if the customer's concerned with the service center / dealer asking questions." Keep in mind, I have never used a programmer/calibrator so this is all new (noob ) to me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
