Have your transmission adaptations reset and then perform the relearn procedure (30 percent throttle from a stop to 60, let coast down to stop, smooth road, no interruptions, repeat 3 times and then do 3 times in sport and also in manual (shift at 2500-3k in manual).

Also have your transfer case recalibrated at the same time. You can also do all this yourself with a ENET cable, laptop, and ISTA if you are a do-it-yourselfer.

Make sure to do the relearn procedure on the transmission after as it will actually shift worse for the first few miles after reset while the computer is learning the new adaptations. Smooth long stretches of level roads are a must during the relearn. If you are in city then try to do when traffic is lightest, goal is not to be interrupted by having to brake early.
