auto shift problem
Anyone have a problem with the C6 auto not shifting into 6th when going onto a highway? Sometimes I have to force the shift by putting it into sport and using the paddles to get it into 6th.

Only time mine does that is when I am in S mode and have been pressing hard on the go pedal. Transmission will hold a gear longer waiting to see if you get back on the throttle. ....normal.

My 07 does it occasionally. It will shift into 6th if I let off of the throttle. One time it locked into 3rd gear and there was nothing I could do to get it out of 3rd. I stopped and shut it off for a few minutes when I restarted all was fine again.
