One test if you can? Deactivate DSC and see if you can get the 6th level of drive logic. Also Glenn Wyatt said that the shifts were as hard as what they were in sport mode. I wonder why yours seem much harder?

Maybe his trans had seen more wear?

VO just updated on CAS and NFRM. I've locked the vehicle up and am waiting the 5min cooldown period (reboot period?). I'll start coding in values next!!!

So I updated the VO, and set NFRM, JRBB, KOMBI and CIC to factory settings based on VO, then added in KOMBI coding for the RPMs and CIC coding for the MDrive menus.

Well, I have the correct RPM, and the MDrive menus...

But shift logic isn't there and when I go to D mode I get no feedback from the KOMBI. I'm missing something in the coding for sure but I'm taking a break for now.

Add DKG_CIC set to ACTIVE this will give you the drivelogic to control the DCT
There’s another one for EDC and shift lights/limiter

In case you didn't watch the 90sec video. Yes, you get full DriveLogic control! Fully disabled DSC opens up the 6th slot of shift logic :)

Right now there are 2 remaining issues:

CIC has the MDrive menu but nothing populates there
Park doesn't work

Yes...the 6th level of drive logic appears when you disable DSC.

Probably just due to more torque. I'm sitting around 520wtq...easier to tell at higher power I bet. And the shift that really caught me by surprise was a short shift at 3500rpm at WOT....exactly at peak torque. It lit the tires up shifting into 3rd.

Evidently not :(

I'll dig back into it later to find the receptacle. Do you remember where it was? I have pics of the GWS and don't see it.

off the top of my head no.. but its a tiny little 2 pin just like you unplugged from the original GWS. if i recall correctly it even plugged right in, wires were a little bit of a stretch though.
