RE: CLS500 Transmission problems anyone?

My CLS 320 cdi is the same and with the superchip fitted, it struggles to find adequate gears. Is it just because i opted for the paddle shift gear option?[?][?][?]
I had a 2006 ML with 7 speed for 6 months, and traded it with MB, or they were due in court. I got a E350 4matic, 5 speed transmission. When you see all the 7's failing, you have to go with the old tech. The 5 speed 4matic with the new V6 is fine, plenty of power in C and great in S if I want to beat up a high school kid with his Honda and a big pipe.... LOL

My advice, stay away from the 7 speed for as long as possibe, although by that time we will see a 9-10 speed since lexus is going to up numbers this coming model year.
