Thanks Frank,

I was driving the 400E last weekend for testing... that car is so much fun... if there were not the late upshift.
Weirdest thing happened when I started. The engine had to rev up to 4k (cold0 until it shifter 1-2.
WOW that scared me with cold engine... that cannot be healthy.
After the engine warmed up I had the now 'normal' 1-2 upshift between 2500 and 3000

I then remembered that my wife reported last year (it is my wife's car) that she had a situation when did not want to upshift and I did not believe her then.
Because I could never reproduce this until the late upshift was established as a new normal.
I just wanted to report this and maybe there is a hint (VB or governor ...that is the question) for those who know.
