Picked up my MSRT8 yesterday after all TSB's completed. Dealer very supportive (Jack Powell, Escondido, CA)

All TSB's (including full service bulletin printout) can be found at:

Bedded the brakes & tested the mods.

1. TSB 05-005-05 - Brake pads. Performance just as awsome as originals, seems like dust reduced (very little generated during bedding) will monitor as the miles build.

2. TSB 05-006-06 - Slotted Rotors look cool, will monitor for groving as the miles build.

3. TSB 21-020-06 -TCM reflash is awsome!. In full auto, the transmission is still "learning", but (with ESP full on) no engine cutoff from rolling start or from standing start at shift points.Smooth shifts atWOT in auto. Shifts at about 6000 indicated so far, but probably will adjust upward as it "learns" that I like redline shifts. In "manual", the transmission has nothing to learn. It holds the selected gear until redline at any throttle setting & if you haven't already shifted, it snaps a smooth but firm shift at 6100RPM indicated (probably 6200 actual due to tach needle lag). It looks like the hot low ET movewith good traction & warmed up tires is to leave it & manual & let the transmission "protect" itself with redline shifts every time.

Enjoy.

Thanks MagnumSRT8....

I also had the brakes taken care of but I was 2 weeks early for the TCM reflash. I appreciate you IDing the TSB. The dealer always seems to respond better when I give him the number.

I am also having problems with my AC freezing up on the road, when the conditions are right. TSB 24-012-05a sounds like it fits. Asked the dealer to take care of it the lase time I was in, but he "forgot". Now I have 2 reasons to go visit him again.

Again, I really appreciate the info....

 

Just had my brake rotors and pads done, and the Tranny TSB, it's like a whole different car!
