Good day all! Been having this issue, wonder if anyone can provide some guidance with my new 2026 ORP.

I’m at about 1000kms.. Babied it a bit for the first 3-400kms.. less since..

I notice that from a complete standstill, the tranny will start from first and run through the gears normally. But let’s say i slightly roll a stop, even ever so slightly.. it seems like the tranny never goes back into first, stays in 2nd or 3rd and slips the torque converter until the gear finally fully engages and then acceleration is normal again.

Is this normal behaviour with these transmissions? Sometimes the slip is quite excessive. Almost feels like a cvt (barf).

thank you!

I believe it is the "self-learning" part of the transmission. I'm not a huge fan of it tbh but I definitely feel it a ton. Sometimes I feel a bit embarrassed when my friends with a Stellantis Durango has a smoother shifting trans lmao
