    I've been off the srt8 lx forums for a while.

    Has there come a fix for the tranny-nanny flash "FIX" yet. I'm sick of not being able to drift my wagon!

    Welcome to the SRT/C!

    While I'm not 100% sure what you're referring to, the Predator Tuner has a traction control delete option... not that its necessary, as the predator now allows me to spin into 2nd with its 91 oct tune (CAI and Exhaust are my other mods)... all with traction control FULLY ENABLED! Oh, and that's from a 30 mph roll.

    guys, one thing to keep in mind that is key...... if i remember correctly, ike has an 06' like me. you three have 07's. i know when i had mine done it, as rick would say,"neutered" the car. even after i installed the pred, it still would not smoke the tires through first and through second without it short shifting at times. the pred does not override any tcm programming if i am not mistaken...... i had the issue ike refers to on my 06 after the tsb for the tcm, and still had it after the pred. i got rid of it just recently when i had the dealer flash my spare pcm to the car and rewrote the programming for the tcm and the pcm to the leo software...... MUCH better now!!! hahahahahah

    Yeah still hate the car.................. Y'all know that this makes me want to trade it in but its still perfect everywhere else!

    I'm gonna look for a stage one tcm, or I'd still like to trade my flashed unit for a unflashed unit. When I had the coin to get a stage 1 I spent it on a SRT-10, no tranny-nanny!

    What is the leo software? will it get rid of this turd flash?

    jay - leo (law enforcement officers) is just a term that my tech uses to describe the source of the flash he used on my srt. you probably here people talk of the "police package" software. well i do not think what i had flashed is listed as such by dodge, but it is a software version for the pcm&tcm that is specifically used on the leo cars down in my area. i do not know the full story on the hows and whys of the flash, all i know is my tech told me about, said it addressed some of the issues i did not like, specifically the old tcm tsb, and tweaked few things in the tune of the car (timing and fuel)..... i flashed it on a spare pcm to experiment, and i very much was pleasantly surprised how much better the car drove......

    HHHmmmm I need to find a way to do this with mine. I hate the 1-2nd shift problem and some of the other stupid things that happen.

    you still have 1-2 hesitation???? what kind of tune/flash is on your pcm. if you have a b&g, dave works out the 1-2 as far as i know. also, see about getting an aftermarket tcm.... that will solve everything!!! i think the biggest reason why i like my car so much better now is that the tcm, along with the pcm, was reflashed to get rid of the dam "tranny-nanny" as jay (bigike) calls it!!!!!

    Ummm, Chris, I'm pretty sure that the TSB flash for the '06 IS what they used for the '07s. At least that's what the engineers said.

    doubt it...... they will probably look at you with a "wtf" look on their face and tell you there is no such thing and that you need to stop surfing internet forums where people tell lies and are full of shit!!!

    This so called 'Nanny' is the biggest disappointment with this car for me. I am still not sure what is the culprit here, the PCM or the TCM. If it is in the PCM is there a way for me to get a spare PCM without the dealer knowing about it (flashing the VIN to it)? This is what is stopping me from getting the Predator. I know you can always go back to the stock tune but I would always feel more comfortable just swapping them in and out.

    steel - find a dealer that is a bit more flexible with mods. mine is a dream to deal with. yes, you have to get a spare pcm flashed to the car. this is exactly what i did so i could "experiment" with a flash that my tech was telling me he used on some police srt's in our area. reprogrammed the pcm and tcm. the nanny is a tcm issue........
