Does anyone have a problem with their automatic downshifting hard into 2nd to 1st? I am running a SCT regular tune and normal driving its fine but when I drive on the highway for a long distance the transmission will downshift very hard and do a whining noise when doing it. I havnt paid much attention to it before because I dont do much highway driving but last night I noticed it when I was out I did it coming to a redlight on a off ramp then later coming to a 4way stop.
