I have the needed interface cable to allow programming BUT trying to interpret the SHIFT SCHEDULING tables is next to impossible. (WHO EVER WROTE THE 8 SPEED PROGRAMMING INTERFACE WAS A SADIST!!!) Who needs 5 Aggression sections, various non-aggression sections and about 100 shift schedules??? QUESTIONS: How do I determine what shift schedule I'm in when slowing to a stop? Will editing the 2 to 1 shift RPM section @ near zero throttle position be sufficient to get the transmission to downshift to 1st gear BEFORE completely stopping???
Also, is there a VERY comprehensive manual the explains the programming of the ZF-based 8 speed???
Thanks.
