Default Any solution to the hard 5 to 4 shift?

I know I've read on here before about the hard 5 to 4 shift being a known issue. I also get a rough 4 to 3 shift occasionally.

Has anyone had this resolved?

I know resetting the transmission learning will make it go away for a while, I've done it with ForScan and it makes it go away for a few weeks and then it comes back.

Just wondering if there is a software update that actually fixes the issue out yet.

Everything I've seen is there's a TSB for this. Take it to the dealer, should be a free fix (I think).

When posting questions like this, since you don't have a signature, to include the year, engine, and any other specifics like the build date, so those of us that have access to information regarding issues like this can determine if an SSM or TSB applies to your vehicle. Nonetheless I'll take a shot in the dark and post this TSB, which has already been posted many times before. If this doesn't apply to your specific vehicle please disregard.

He has a 2015, imported from Canada.. so this TSB applies and should fix the problem,, it has on mine and most others.. took me just a couple of minutes to find out what he had,,,,,,,, of course it would only take seconds to know this if he and others spent a few minutes making a signature with the information..

Odd it's not showing in the first post. If you change your sig it changes in all of your posts. Must be a glitch?
