Traded in Lightning picked up issues.

[halbo50]

Traded in my lightning for a 401A Oxford White Tremor. Love the truck but having some issues. Dealer already replaced the battery at 200 miles (funny I got rid of the lightning over battery concern). The transmission bangs into gear and hunts around. I reset the transmission learning and that hepled for a few days but idled for about 15 minutes today and transmission bang shift came back. Anyway truck still looks good. I’ll start checking the forums for answers.

Needs some time for the adaptive trans tune to settle. Usually around 1k miles. I’d drive it some and see if it smoothes out.

Thanks I’ll give it a little longer.

Welcome to the forum @halbo50 - Congrats on the new Tremor! Does it only seem rough going into specific gears? I've seen a few other reports of this:

Clunky transmission shift between 2nd-3rd gear, experienced frequently

I’ve felt/heard this transmission clunk issue ever since I first bought the truck in February. It’s intermittent, happens mostly at lower speeds during stop n go traffic. I’ve been looking at the gear shift display ( see pic) and noticed it happens from 2-3rd shift and or 2nd to 1st. Do any...

10 speed transmission

After about 1500mi, can't say I'm a fan of it. Thing shifts like a bag of rocks, and honestly, it's kindof annoying how low it wants to stay all the time. Mine doesn't shudder (yet), as others have posted, but it sure feels clunky. Few questions for others- Have you had the transmission...

It actually shifts fine then out of nowhere I go to put it in reverse and it slams into gear or gives me a shifter error and goes back to park, shift to drive and it slams into gear then drive poorly.
One item I noticed is after the battery incident I put the voltage display on the radar detector and raised the battery limit in Forscan from 80 to 98. That along with resetting the learning table seemed to straighten it out. Yesterday I noticed the voltage started swinging around in the low 13’s when everything started happening again.
When I hooked up Forscan it looked like the battery was charged about 96% and the charging state read “free slow regen allowed no discharge allowed”.
This morning everything was fine and charging method was “conventional charging”.
Anyway, not to eat up a welcome thread so later today I’ll open up a thread in the issues forum.
