Yes, mine will do it going out the driveway. It is from 1st to 2nd shift on mine. Doesn't seem to do it downshifting, just up shifting. I'm running a tune, and it did it worse on Fords programming than it does on unleashed, but it does it none the less.
I had it in twice for the problem, but since they can't (won't) reproduce it, they say there is nothing that can be done. It's been reprogrammed, but like I said, they didn't fix it with that either so I just bought a tune. I try not to let it coast or idle along like that when it is going to shift. If I put a little gas to it when it's in first and make it shift to second it doesn't do it. Good luck, get used to it and change your habits like I did is all the good I can tell ya.
