S Mode Has Changed My Life

The truck actually drives normally/as expected in S mode, specifically S4. The same driving that was painful in D is now perfectly normal. Ill upshift to 5 on the highway otherwise S4. Try it if you're unhappy with the D settings.

 

I use it too for low speed limits so I don't speed, usually s4. You do know there is a 6 to shift into right? hope you're not driving on the highway in just 5th. Should be fine but just FYI.

 

I drive in N, y'all are weird.

 

Psh


Posers.

 

I'd be a little worried about the Transmission (long term), driving in S mode all the time....

 

How so? You can choose to shift at the points where D would shift for you. You're just driving a semi-automatic where you choose when to shift.

 

How and why? All S mode does is bypasses the AI shifting. In S4 you are locking out the overdrive gears, 5 and 6, which is great in town.

 

Uhg. I'd hate that. I'm in 4th in town all day

 

I use it all the time ... S = “Street” mode to me.

 

Got one of these bad boys, made a huge difference. Pop it in s mode when you start the truck and forget about it whether in town or highway.

+1 Get this and enjoy!

 

Anyone know how this compares to the OV tune?

 

Exact same thing. But cheaper.

 

OVtune also changes throttle and fuel mapping, in the big boy tune world known as a "Stage-1" tune and nets about a 20-25hp gain.

Does Shift Sense do that or just transmission mapping?

 

Try it in R, race mode

 

It's just transmission mapping, but it's way cheaper, easier to install, can be removed, doesn't void anything and works quite well, but not as good as ov tune. Plenty for me though
