DS manual mode slow shifting

[Ashephillis]

2009 fx50s. When I use manual mode in DS there is probably a 2 second delay when i change gears with the paddles at WOT. Does anyone else have this problem. I never use them because of this reason. Light throttle they seem to shift ok, but gear changes are painfully slow when i try to get on it. Thoughts?

Almost seems as the ecu is cutting power to avoid hitting the limiter or something like that.

I don't have this issue. I would not say the trans is fast by any means but it does not take 2 seconds to shift. is this a new issue or has it always been this way?

Car has 105xxx on the clock, only had it a few months but, yes it has always done this.

I'll take a video of it tomorrow and try to post it up.

Sounds like your car needs a flash update on the tranny , TSBs at no charge as long as your car still under warranty. On other hand as least here in US dealers you can always try to negotiate the price.

You can go to this site and check for tsb's of your car model/year and just show it to your service consultant when you take it to the dealership or contact them
