Solves the forced shift pattern from 1st to 4th.

Bought this for my 2016 Chevy SS as the 1st through 4th settings were extremely annoying and actually pretty dangerous when you need to accelerate quickly after a shift. My Chevy dealer installed a Muzzy SLP for about $30. Easy installation. Works perfectly. The car shifts from 1st to 2nd every time you want it to. Highly recommended repair!

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Not the best

If you have a manual transmission Hemi you need this

It took longer to find the installation video than to install the thing. Plug and play and you're done. I was lazy and used an elevator, but you can definitely install one in your driveway. The ride quality is fantastic. no more than 1-4 layers if you are trying to move in a hurry. Probably a placebo effect, but the gears seem to shift more smoothly.

Pros
  • New

  • Nothing

Does not fit Camaro 2018

Does not fit Camaro SS 1LE 2018. The plug is different from the factory plug. Especially cutouts on the sides. Well, I suppose you could stuff it in there and get it working, but you'd have room for it, and there is absolutely none. The socket is at an angle and can hardly be reached. I tried over and over and couldn't slide it right. Came back and plugged in the OEM with no problems. send back.

Pros
  • Ideal for small households
Cons
  • Security

Do you have a 2016 Corvette? Stop reading and buy!

Slide it the way it should always be, I should have bought and installed that day, was quick but not that easy (30 minutes from install to cleaning). I wrapped the wires and connectors in Scotch 3311 2" x 10 yd 3.6ml silver aluminum foil to keep things warm and camouflaged from dealers. No CEL or any warnings just smooth shifting. Buy it and love this great manual beast.

40 mile warning light

Does not work out of the box. Installation was easy on the 2017 Corvette with 7-speed manual transmission. Driven around the block a few times and the shift jump function seems to be hitting, but after about 40 miles the check engine light came on. On a Corvette, as long as the wiring harness is disconnected from the skip shift solenoid, skip shifting is disabled but the check engine light is left on unless the wiring harness experiences a certain amount of electrical resistance. Removed the…

  • Slim design

  • Socket required

Turned on the engine light

Worked on my 5th generation Camaro for a day and then turned on the engine light. Fault: P080D Upshift/Skip Solenoid Control Circuit. I reset the error and it reappeared the next time I got the 1 -> 4 shift skip message on the dashboard. I suspect the resistor is blown and is an open circuit to the computer generating the error. Several recent 1 star reviewers seem to have encountered the same issue. I'm not happy I had to crawl under my Camaro again to replace this. Update 7/7/18: Block…

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Not sure

Although it works great, I had to shave a bit.

I installed this on my '96 Corvette and although it works great I had to cut some plastic off the white connector to get it to snap into place. It's hard to explain, but the end of the kit's plug looks like two big C shapes, and the plug on my transmission was a big C and a small C shape. Just had to use a razor blade to snip off the shoulders on one side to fit. But otherwise it works great and I'm so glad that I no longer have to shift into 4th gear in the middle of an intersection. The light

Check Engine Warning Light

Only 1 star because the item produced the Check Engine light. GM CAGS (Automated Gear Selection) system Cons: Contrary to Revain's claims, the check engine light came on. Ordered a new one from a Revain third party called "Emblemz" and filled it out by Revain. The part was installed on a 2018 Camaro 1SS with 6 speed manual transmission. The car is in original condition, no tuning, no modifications, no keys on the OBD II port. The device is properly installed in the correct connector [NOT the…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Works as expected and installs in minutes.

I didn't think I was missing anything when CAGS is enabled. I'm glad I spent a few bucks to get this workaround. On my transmission (2004 Pontiac GTO with 6 speed manual), the CAGS is on the driver's side, just above the pressure control inlet and about halfway up the side. I don't have a picture of it, but when you're under the car the CAGS sensor looks like the sensor on the end of this adapter (the lighter end). If you see it on your gearbox, you've found it. Carefully detach the CAGS, being
