This is my first winter with my new to me 2019, and I have noticed sometimes the transmission has some lag in finding a gear when coming off of a rolling stop. Meaning, I start accelerating, the engine revs, and it takes a moment to find a gear. I know some of the pre 2016 LCs had a software update to fix shifting but I wasn’t sure if others with a 2016+ had similar issues.
 
I believe that all 200s after 2018 should have the software update for the 8speed to resolve the shutter people complained about. But you can consistently still make that RPM jump then jerk shift happen from rolling at the right speed. I'm assuming it happens when you're coast down close to 10mph and get back on the gas?

That is exactly what happens, gentle rolling stop and then a bit of trouble finding a gear. If that is a known issue that fine, just wanted to make sure it wasn’t something goofy with my truck

My 2016 does the same thing and I have the reflash. It seems to only do it at slow speeds, less that man 10mph, when the vehicle is cold.
