Just reflashed my transmission!

To alpina software. What an UNREAL difference this makes. It's literally like driving another car.

The shifts are lightning fast, always feels like it's in the right gear now.

Recommend anyone with an autobox to get this done. Makes it feel closer to a DCT now.

Where did you get this done? how much did it cost you ?

I had a guy remotely do it, you need a special cable which is around 60-100 and a laptop running 32bit windows. If you were in the GTA i'd just let you use my setup.

It was a reasonable price, I was asked not to post it.

Kou to do it remotely you need a cable and a laptop running a 32bit version of windows. I had mine remotely coded by this guy:
ccnoner@aol.com

Anyone in the GTA, I could help you get yours done also with my setup.
