2009 NC Auto - Manual mode not working

Postby Driver06 » Tue Aug 25, 2020 3:46 am

Can anyone help?
My daughter just bought a 2009 NC2 Auto and the transmission automatically changes up gears even when in manual mode.
It is not possible to hit the rev limiter in any gear, changes up automatically even when in manual mode at 6000RPM or so.
Not nice to drive, for example when in 2nd gear and accelerating towards a corner and reaching 6000RPM+ then lift off to go around the corner instead of getting some engine braking the transmission changes to 3rd gear. It also does this in higher gears.
How can I fix this?

My 2007 auto does not do this
