Going to Race a 2002 M5

And I'd be careful on the highway. I've read a lot of times when people's transmissions have been slipping, they always downshift from whichever gear into 1st or 2nd. So if you're just cruising at 80, you might experience that sudden 5 to 1 downshift which means everything would lock up and you could cause a huge accident without any notice if someone's following you.

The paddle shift on the Comp G's is well tuned and a very good system, it may suck on your car, but that's your car.

Haha, you really sound like a retard. First off, I wasn't talking to you, so if this problem doesn't concern you or you're not here to help, why are you responding? If you had read his post, he said it shifts from first to 4th and here you are acting like a hardass, "it's well tuned, if it sucks on your car, it's your car" First off, I said I had triptonic, not the paddle shifter. Second, it may function well when he's stock, but he's not, so how do YOU know his is well tuned if it doesn't sound like it's well tuned to take the extra power.

:loser:

You obviously know nothing of the 4L60E transmission, i have had the pleasure to drive a car like his(stock),and was very impressed with the handling acceleration, and i help J Swigz dad(who is ASE Master) work on these once in a while, so i know what i'm talking about. The transmission in his car is an improved version of the 4T60E, and those are known to handle well over 300 WHP, so i'm sure his can take it. I only read your last two posts and assumed you had the paddle shift, my error.

And i've never had a problem with the tap shift going from 1-4 like that, so it's probably an error cause by him tampering.

For 43K miles, 115+ passes the tap shift worked fine and would allow you to shift slightly higher than the pcm would have. I have made alot of passes on the stock tranny, and it is a weakness with these cars. Perhaps that is why GM upped the torque management in the 04+GPs. I plan on getting a more durable trans but probably no LSD and I'll keep the stock 3.29 gears.

No I tapped once like usual but it just shifted into 4th instead of 2nd like it should have. My transmission is failing me.

improved version of the 4T60E

Yeah it has various improved parts making it more expensive and harder to get, especially the compg transmissions. :p I was hoping it would last for a few more months but I new it would die eventually.

Working for a GM dealer i could hook you up with some good discounts, that's saying you either live near me or trust me with your cash to get the parts, but i could still price you whatever you need pretty cheap.
