Hey everyone. Im new to the automatic transmission in a sports car.
My question is very simply, does using the sport shift (slap shift) mode compromise the longevity of the transmission? Generally speaking, it was thought that shifting an automatic transmission would degrade the transmission until eventually it went. I made this assumption coming from the world of the Fbody with the weak 4L60E.
I understand this car was built with this feature, but it wouldnt be the first time a "Gee Wiz" idea was implemented into a car that was overtly bad for it.
Thoughts? I dont have an opinion either way at this point.
