You need to retrain the transmission computer after doing so. There is a driving procedure to do so. PM me and I'll link the procedure to you.

@gab13005 Ford didn't name it that, that's just what it is...Ford named it PowerShift. A dual-clutch transmission is an automated manual transmission because it is one. There's no torque converter and no planetary gear set like a traditional automatic. There's one clutch for odd gears, one for even. Yes, from a driver's perspective, it is an "automatic" transmission. Behind the scenes, it works like a manual transmission with two clutches. Both clutches work in tandem for gear changes.

dual-clutch automated manual... this is an automatic transmission that passes the gears for you, i know it's the company that named the transmission like that but it has nothing to do with a manual transmission

I have like half your mileage and you have had this car for over twice as long as me lol
How do you like it so far? Fully loaded with nav? I'm deciding between veloster and this...

@ItTastesGood Well the MyFord Touch and transmission haven't exactly been reliable but I would still take this over a Veloster...cuz the Veloster is pretty slow and not exactly what I'd call an attractive or practical car. There's a Veloster Turbo on the way so you might want to wait for that too

Hey have you had the transmission TSBs applied?
Seriously get it done!
TSB 10-10-2 is ESSENTIAL and will prevent TRANSMISSION DAMAGE
The latest software for the DCT is from another TSB
TSB 12-01-04A
The make a HUGE difference in the car as a whole in terms of driveablity.

@justincgs brought it in for that, dealer was incredibly rude to me when I requested it and the differences are minimal
