Add me to the bucket of shitty shifting. My truck has been running smooth for years but right after this update I’m clanking and clunking through the gears now.

Spreadsheet updated to reflect PCM OTA PT-25.24.2. Possibly Tremor specific.

Also updated to include PT-25.15.5.

That's a different one. Send me your VIN.

I need the other guys to send me the VIN's, too, though. Curious to see if it's the same strategy on theirs and yours. My truck is not showing a PCM update pending.

Sent.

FWIW I am part of the EAP so maybe that's why it's a different one? I definitely filled out the survey to let them know what I thought.

I'm in EAP too, and I am not showing anything. Yours updated to the VXE strategy.

@coops361 @MNSportsman

Please send me your VINs to check which strategy you guys got to see if there is a correlation.

Just sent you a DM...Thanks.

Yours is a different strategy than @speedracercjr; so much for that theory.

Here is the screen that I have been stuck on for months. Apparently FDRS showed available updates.

I did manual updates a couple years ago via FDRS and when my license expired I did a USB GWM.

Spoiler: Update order

PCM
ABS
SCCM
BCM
DDM
PDM
IPMA
TCM
GWM
APIM
GWM
TCU
GWM
APIM
GWM (via USB from forum)

I have a H8 battery. Tried leaving overnight with charger, tried changing auto update time, tried the 30 min battery disconnect.

is it possible the module is stuck? The screen is very weird.

@bgalakazam , your HVAC issue on the FORScan thread may be the reason. Id like @rugedraw to weigh in on this because I think this seems the way to go:
As I see you have the ability to do FDRS, a PMI of the HVAC, answering "no" to "is this the original module" may clean the update issue up. Do any other updates afterwards; may as well.

Looks like I got this one last night. Guess I’ll see what happens on my way to work this morning lol

My 2021 3.5 received the PT-25.15.5 last night. Haven’t driven it yet to see how it effects the shifting.

Same here. I won't be driving it out of town for a few days, so time will tell how it behaves.

Chris.... what he is seeing is a bug in the OTA software. I had an OTA sit on my screen for months saying incomplete, but after checking deeper, it was complete. The notice didn't change even after doing some updates with FDRS. It finally changed after an OTA went through. I would not worry about it showing nothing.

 

[speedracercjr]

Good to yall gettin 25.15.5. Seemed like the worst was downshifts while stopping, specifically 4th -1st gear. One of the downshifts was so hard I actually thought I got rear-ended.
