1. My shift feel seems just as good now as when I first programmed the truck about 2 years ago.

2. If there WAS a "relearn" mechanism, it would kind of defeat the purpose of custom tunes.
However, I have no real facts to base this opinion on. So, it will be nice to hear from "The Man"!

Bill did post a reply to a similiar question in the past but am not sure where it is posted. He referenced the tranny will calibrate according to driving style. If you drive more conservatively it will "learn" and soften the shifts. If you drive hard it will firm them up. I believe this applied to custom tunes also, but will wait from Bill to confirm.
