any way the magnasteer could of been affecting my trans? i did the rack on Saturday and yesterday and today, the trans is definitely shifting sooner, under light gas and shifting firmer, and holding what ever gear its in tighter.
its not shifting hard in any way just firmer.
i haven't done a thing to the car other than the rack and pinion. any ideas? or am i crazy?
ps: oh, and i did not un hook the battery while doing the rack, left it hooked up the whole time.

You are crazy.
It's cool, cause many of us are too.

I wish there was some way to link the 2 but I just don't know. Lol

Colin..
He's nuts.

Maybe while you were reconnecting the wiring to the Magnasteer you bumped the electrical connection to the trans? That's all I got. That or you really are crazy, lol... Either way enjoy the new rack and better driving trans.

ahhh, i don't know either, but lets just say if the car you drove every day felt this different, you would notice it too, even feels better when wot and hold it till it shifts, its got no slop any more and shifts a lot firmer.
maybe i had a partial blockage that blew out in the trans, who knows, im glad it feels better one way or another.

accidently hit ur performance shift button?...
06-15-2011
perf shift on or off it feels better. really feels better when not in perf shift mode lol, and feels like i have perf shift now when its on.
it may be time for a trans tune up, i've been putting it off because my fluid is burnt up and brown, i was waiting till i can put a new trans in, but with this now maybe ill take the chance and do it now. i just don't want to not have any transmission after im done with a fluid and filter change.

The trick is to keep the transmission. If you throw it out (not part of the GM recommended flush procedure, but a buddy of your might have told you it was a good performance mod), you won't have a transmission anymore.Originally Posted by scottydoggs

now thats funny......
i should have said a not working trans after a fluid and filter change.

Adaptive shifts etc is in the PCM not in teh trans.
Scott... Yer NUTS
06-15-2011
that's why i told you guys i didn't un hook the battery, i know the pcm wasn't reset in any way.
if im certifiable ill just stay this way, the trans still shifts better lol

Don't worry, it's everyone in your state. Kinda cracks me up you guys still can't pump your own gas.
06-15-2011
true that, but why is gas cheaper here than most of the US? i think we are the only state that you cant pump your own gas in.
my brother lives just over the border from jersey to up state NY and he come here for gas, and fights with the attendant every time so he can pump his own gas, hes got a cherry 05 Yukon and don't let any one near it.
in NY you pump or pay a full service fee per gallon. don't make any sense to me.

Oregon pumps for you too. Fought those bastids cause I wanted Super Unleaded.

^ Lol, I'd let him pump all the gas he wants..

be nice about the hair, he donates his hair every year or so for cancer patients wigs, you need to send in 19 inches, he send 24" most of the time.

My hair is too short to donate. Good on him though. (I was just kidding about the pony tail.)
