Since the TCU "learns" driving behavior and attempts to adapt shift patterns and activity to it, clearing the adaptions wipes out that memory and can potentially fix a misbehaving gearbox. Any reputable shop with Star should be able to clear those adaptions for you, I believe.
ah, in that case, that's a wasted effort. even if a shop does that through STAR, the nuisances will reappear sooner than later.

*** BREAKING NEWS ***

apparently crazypotato has figured something out about this issue. the CDI also has the 722.6 transmission. look at what they're doing to fix this same issue that they call "RSN"
