I had what I described as  a 1-2 stutter under  WOT .  Can you describe wheel hop to me? Perhaps its the same thing I was experiencing.

I just got a B&G transmission fluid change, rear differential fluid change, coolant change, and PTU fluid change.  I can't swear by it, but the runs I have taken so far, only two of them, there was no shudder/sutter. It's too cold here to really test right now, but I'm going to continue testing to see if somehow, with those preventive maintenance items, it went away.
When I hit 2nd at wot it shudders which I'm describing as wheel hop. It comes from the front and it feels like the front is hopping up and down as it spins.

I think We all are describing the same thing. I thought it was transmission based, but wheel hop makes sense too. it doesn't happen with the stock tune when there is significantly less power being delivered. And it doesn't happen except for wide open throttle position from first to second.

Yep. Happens to me too. You could soften the shift from 1-2 and see how it does.

I softened the 1-2 shift last night but it's in the 20's this morning so not going to be trying any hard launches today.

I noticed this happens to me also now with Unleashed tune. I am pretty sure its wheelhop as it doesent happen when my tires actually spin only when there is more traction. It depends what street i am on.

I just quit mashing it from a dig all together until it warms up. The hop is atrocious in any ambient temps lower than 50 or 60. Least ways, with the OE Goodyears.

I am experiencing the exact problem!
It started as soon as I got my Unleashed tune...
I've had Torrie change the 1-2 shift twice but still feel it most times at WOT.
I have what's left of my factory Michelens with 42,000! (I know)
Really hoping this is a Wheel hop issue, I'm terrified my transmission is in trouble!

Have you serviced the trans at all?

Ambient temps in your area?
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
