    It doesn't sound like it makes sense, but the engine timing may change a little bit depending on the fuel you put in it. Possible maybe that the programming flows through to the transmission behavior?

    My dad's 2012 DLB jerks into 2nd gear as well, I just thought its how the truck drives. Tried 93 octane once and got 13 mpg vs the regular 16-17 in town so I stick with 87 now
