So I?ve been at 17.01 (or 17.1 whatever it is) for a month now and while I can say that the slamming issue with the tranny (along with the overall performance) is vastly improved?it?s still not quite right. There have been a couple occasions when after doing a rolling stop and then getting back on the throttle?the car slightly hesitates and then goes into gear (not so smooth, a thunk vs a slam)?no big slam?but it sure seemed as if it was going to do it again. Also on occasion some stuttering from the tranny again after a rolling stop.

Anyone else experience with the same after having 17.XX installed?

I don't know what version I have. I just got an update last week. I agree the tranny is so much better now but still not quite right.

After a non braking slow down and stepping on the throttle the car hesitates. I notice is every time I take a turn where I don't use the brake but just let up on the gas and then return to throttle the car hesitates.

It bothers me a lot.

I have been running with 17.1 for about a month now and have no problems or complaints.

18.01 is supposed to fix tranny issues. I just got it on Friday. I went straight there from 16.2, so not sure how 17 feels. You might want to get them to update it again. Good Luck.
