Was watching the tacho waiting for the upshift 6000, 6100, 6200, 6300, 6400, 6500 and no upshift. Force the upshift - backed off and shifted into adaptive drive. I only did this the once and was lucky to also have a video of it. Has anyone else's BFT done this? Should I be taking it back to the tuner and asking WTF? In saying that, was of the understanding that we cannot modify the 6 speed auto software which would indicate this is factory?? It has never done it in adaptive drive....Any thoughts?
