    Possible A6 shift improvement on 2010 GS

    So,I,read that from 2012 up the A6 auto,shift speed and crispness is much improved?Can you buy a GM A6 controller for a 2012 and install on a 2010 A6 to do the improvement or is it a software update or is there an aftermarket program to accomplish the same?
