So my 2014 V2 has a bit of a notchy shift action I'm trying to improve:
2nd gear especially takes an extra firm pull to engage, especially when cold. Improves a bit once warmed up.
It came to me with a short shifter installed, can't tell you which manufacturer or model.
I changed the fluid 600 miles ago with OEM GM for a track day. Seemed a bit better and did fine at the track day, now back to a little cranky and takes a concerted effort to make sure 2nd engages, other gears feel a little notchy but not near as bad as 2nd which feels like a 2 stage action.
Couple questions:
1, Do you think it could be the short shifter? Since it changes a little once warmed up I'd have to guess it's inside the transmission but really don't know. Could adjusting or greasing the shifter at some point help?
2, Who makes the absolute best tranny fluid for this as I'm game to change it again with one of the boutiques like Amsoil or Royal Purple. Suggestions and part numbers to order?
3, on my Cummins NV5600 6 speed, it's recommended on the interwebs to overfill through the shifter and adding an extra quart or 2 in this fashion did help shifting action a bit. Is there a method to overfill the the TR6060 and is it known to help shifting or longevity?
4, or is this a prelude to a rebuild?
Thanks
