Poor shift quality, or high transmission temperatures during track or sport driving.5.7L Engine
Hanging in gear at high engine speeds during aggressive driving.
Gear shift point enhancements during high load or race track driving.
Excessive pedal needed to downshift in high altitudes (i.e. passing).
