6 speed shift points?
I have a 2008 Grand Caravan and wondered if there is any way to adjust shift points. Mine are too high under light to moderate throttle....goes to 3000-3500 before shifting. I think it should be more like 2000-2500 for that much load. Older vehicles had the cable that would adjust shifts somewhat but on this van not sure. I think the throttle is drive by wire so how is the trans getting it's info on throttle position? Is there a separate module to control the trans or is it all done with the PCM? Any info would be appreciated.

well... there are some software updates to "improve" Shift pattern according to chrysler. And I believe software update on PCM should be covered under 8-80k emmision waranty or Powertrain waranty. check with your dealer on this.
But I highly doubt it will fix your concern.
there is really not much you can do about this other than live with it, or buy another car.
And Unfortuately, I am not aware of any aftermarket Tuners are made for Minivans. Unless Dodge decides to make a SRT Caravan in the future.
