Performance Chips
I have a 2015 Z51 Auto. Are there any performance chips in the market that allow me to change the transmission settings along with whatever it does. I have been having transmission issues where the car does not shift properly and jerks when I put it in drive. Service is only able to reset the learning part of the transmission which fixes the issue for about 3-4 weeks then the problem comes back. Just want a one stop fix for these transmission issues along with getting more power to my car.

However, your dealer may need to install a program update that is designed to fix the type of issue you relate. My '15 C7 has not had this issue, but the dealer made certain that all updates are done. My wife's '15 Yukon Denali with the A8 had the 'hard shift' issue. They actually had a recall on hers and installed an new internal wiring harness on it - problem solved.
Hope this helps.

'Chips' no longer apply to newer cars, but the computers can be 'tuned' or 'reprogrammed' for sure. You can get some help from those on the forum who have had their cars tuned.

Good luck getting this fixed.
