  Hello Allan and James

  Thank you for your replies !!

  It's very sad to hear that i have a recent v2.5x wheel that can't be downgraded on firmware and im out of luck because of this

  I tried allready to revert to driver 455 insteas of 462

  Unfortunately it's impossible to downgrade the 0.3.5.0 firmware like shown in this screenshot

  
  

  And James ,,thanks for creating a support ticket ,but off course ,,i am allready in contact with fanatec supoort team about this issue !

  My wheel also had an Rma ,but the shifting problem is still there

  So i realy don't know what to do now ???

  Ralf

  you not need downgrade the steering wheel, you need todo that for the base self -.-

  that miss shift issue comes most likley from base hardware csl dd/DD1/DD2 firmware, not from the steering wheel self

  if downgrade the base firmware not help then dunno.

  Thanks for you reply again

  I noticed this while reading info on the form that the problem is base firmware

  I tried to downgrade the base but realy dont know how to do this

  Only thing what i could do was revert to driver 455 but nowhere i see this option like on my screenshot ,only thing what i vould do was ,flash firmware ,but then the overview says still up to date

  
  

  How i do this downgrade the base firmware ???

  I have good news ! 😁

  Yesterday i tested my v2.5x on my collegue's ps5 with dd pro on 100% ffb

  Same game & same game settings

  I did like 20 laps on my favorite circuit zandvoort

  Not 1 time i had a miss shift 

  The wheel shifts perfectly !

  
  

  So we discovered the shifting problem at my home is because of my csl dd base

  Then we checked his wheelbase settings in the fanatec menu

  I copied the exact settings on my base

  And guess what ,,,,my wheel shifts perfect without any problem 👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🤩🤩

  So the miss shifting was no firmware issue at all

  I used these settings 

  

  
  

  Im very happy that this shifting problem is finnaly solved ,, 🤩

  Please let me know what you think of this 

  May'be this information is useful for others that have the same issue 😉

  Kind regards

  you mean one off those settings may cause miss shift?

  because by default it should not happen at all

  Hi Allan

  Thanks for your reply !

  I didn't try yet to revert the settings to default ,to see if the wheel then get miss shifts again on high ffb setting

  But believe me im very happy i could copy my collegue's settings ,and after this my wheel shifts without problems

  Why i get misshifts by default i still don't know

  But im gonna test this to revert to default and then ill let you know 😉

  Well ,,im done testing now

  The miss shift problem of my v2.5x wheel

  Is because of this

  

  multi position switch setting !!!

  When it's on auto > i directly had miss shifts again in 2nd lap

  Set it back to encoder > No miss shifts anymore

  👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

  that does not help, this bug is time or counter based, by default it not pops up all the time in here

  and short test may not even show the problem

  Thanks for those hints.

  Just weird because both settings should do the same and not impact the shifting.

  Were there other differences between the settings which created the issue and the ones which didn't?

  there is one thing what i notice, it does not always detect apm in steering wheel

  for example in 451 , it detect right away without any issue
