As for the harsh downshift etc, it varies case by case... for some software update alone works for years, for some quick fluid drain and fill + reset adaptations or programming works for years, for some the mechatronics control unit (built into the valve body) does it, for other poor bastards it takes a complete trans rebuild. It all has to do with the amount of internal wear on certain parts, the condition of the fluid, etc. And being that everything including shifts is computer controlled nowadays the software and adaptations can mess with you constantly. (I miss the old days when a simple vacuum line to a modulator and hydraulic pressure controlled it all)
