Hi guys my car is experiencing the same issue hard thud when I put my foot down on downshift I have phoned my local steeler who have said there is no bulletin out for this issue and they have never heard of it before. Have you any more info on this issue also what was the cost for the software update form the steelers.

Highly likely engine mounts. Have someone rev the engine while you watch the motor. It may rise several inches, likely from the left side.

Would loose engine mounts cause this issue as there is no vibration etc and I only experience this hard thud clunk which feels like it coming from under the floor when I put my foot down and then the car obviously drops gears.

Hi @Bora20 in another post you mentioned you did a software update via GAP IID tool and this cured the issue correct?

I did the update after a transmission and transfer case fluid change. I thought that cured it. It fixed the TC noises, after a second flush, but the hard shift/clunk was the engine mounts.
