Ok so it's another hot and humid night here in Miami. I decide to do a few 0-60 runs because on the street, you usually don't tell the guy next to you to wait till your jeep cools down ;) , besides...I wanted to check to see if the shift hesitation I got in the rain the other day was there.
So I go to my "testing road" and set the dashhawk. It's about 86 degress and my IAT was at 104 or so. ECT was 205...I power braked to 1500rpm and let her rip! ...60mph came in 4.4 sec w no shift hesitation in D mode. (Not my best but not bad for a pretty hot and warmed up truck)
Next I decided to try in "slap stick mode" So I launched at 1300rpm and let my 07 shift for it's self....luckily it did! I ran a 4.41, no hesitation either. BY this time the ECT was about 215 and climbing so I shut it down and went home.
Overall pretty happy with the times due to the heat and the fact that the truck had been running - not cooling down when I ran it. Best part- no damn shift hesitation! Guess my truck doesn't like the rain for performance testing...lol. Another good thing was that I verifed my truck does shift itself in "slapstick mode" so there's no chance of hitting the rev limiter.
Just thought I'd share the wealth :cool:
