Default Superchips and MDS=?

Who else has the superchips and MdS? I'm not noticing a huge difference, except for the godawful switch in and out of MDS. I like my MdS, bit with the tuner I shift in and out it too much. Does anyone else have this and is there a fix coming soon?

Tis 1 of the reasons I got rid of my Superchips!!!! They're working too much on other things right now, and the MDS issue is not of their top priority...

I dont have a problem with it, at least no more of a problem than I did when it was stock. I assume that you are in performance tune? The only annoying thing that I have is that if I am cruising around 40-45 it seems like the tranny drops into too low of a gear (or **** now that I am typing this post, maybe its the MDS....)

Anyway, is this the problem that you are referring too??

I have a superchips cortex, love the performance gains, but the MDS really aggravates me. I have my truck set back to stock right now, but i usually drive in tow/haul mode when i have a tune installed. Really sucks to have spent so much money on the tuner and not use it because of this one flaw. Hopefully superchips will come up with something soon for this problem. The only answer I got from them was it is normal for the trucks with MDS. May be normal, but I still don't like it....Just don't seem right.

Yeah, mine without the superchips does it too. 45 is the sweet spot for my mds. if you keep it there, and just punch it into tow haul it will come out of it without shifting. so i think its the mds too. doesnt bother me though.
