Trans mods?

I have read that there is a re chip for the trans. But is there something the dealer can do to firm up the shift?

1999 e430 btw

swap in some updated solenoids. other than that you can get a eurocharged TCU tune for faster shifts.

They emailed me and told me that the trans tune was not available for my car.

Curious about the solenoids. Any other info on this swap? Cost? Part numbers? Process? Outcome? Thanks,
