Any mechanical or electrical device has certain tolerances, so it's not a stretch that there would be differences between vehicles. My original point was that I doubted fluid had anything to do with the problem and that it was due to either clutch slippage, or software intervention.
If it's the first case, (clutch slippage), I wouldn't expect an immediate gear disengagement followed by it hitting the rev limiter- see what I'm saying? It's not good engineering to employ a mechanical mechanism for torque control when you can do it through software. The very fact that others aren't having these problems would bear that out.
If you've ever owned a car with a bad clutch you know what I mean. It only makes sense that the software is engaging the clutch. Unfortunately, I don't know what the exact circumstances are. I still haven't heard anyone tell me whether they had wheelspin- that could be the reason. It could also be that the whatever sensors are being used to detect torque (and there are a few different mechanisms), have decided that you're over the limit.
It's no consolation, but if you're having this problem and your tuner can't find tables that modify torque control, you're going to have to live with it. You could try having your tuner shift the torque to a higher RPM- that might work and would be an interesting experiment.
