A system for controlling transmission shifting includes a controller that receives a shift request signal and determines if a clutch has been unapplied for more than a predetermined time. With a yes determination, a maximum fill time value for hydraulic fluid to be applied to a clutch control circuit is determined, the maximum fill time value being a function of time the clutch has been unapplied and temperature. A signal indicative of an amount of engine RPM flare after the transmission executes the requested shift is received and a modified maximum fill time value is determined as a function of this flare. The modified maximum fill time value is stored as a replacement for the maximum fill time value for use with a subsequent transmission shifts using this clutch, and reduces an amount of air in the control circuit and an amount of flare with subsequent transmission shifts.
