Default A4 guys in here

Has any one ever done this? Is it safe to do and reliable?

**go to modifications tab on left then scroll down to the "Increase shift firmness" article.

Thanks for your info

Mike

There was like a 4 page discussion on the other site concerning this mod. The guy who started the thread insisted it worked and a bunch of people said they were gonna try it but as I remembered the thread just died and we never heard anything else about it.

I'm no expert on this, but I believe that torque management is killing the shifts irregardless of what you do with that solenoid. I was going to try this as well as I have read it in another post. I burnt my 3 & 4 up before I got a chance to try it. I will be going with a vaccuum solenoid on mine to make shifts immediate and more precise. These are available from TransGo and are adjustable.
