TCC apply/release values in stock 6T70 tune
I have a 2012 Impala with a 6T70 transmission and have a few questions about the stock TCC apply/release settings that don't many sense to me and wanted to get some input from others with more experience.
First, from what I've read, the TCC apply values should *always* be higher than the TCC release values. However, in the stock tune I've noticed this:
- In the part-throttle tables, the 4th gear apply value is "6" at 0% throttle, while the release value is "30" at 0% throttle?
- In the wide-open throttle tables, the 2nd gear apply value is "12", while the release value is "311".
- In the wide-open throttle tables, the 6th gear apply value is "93", while the release value is "96".
All of these seem to break the "apply value should also be higher than the release value" rule. So what really happens in those situations? Are they errors in the stock tune?
Also, I've noticed that the wide-open throttle tables do not always match the 100% throttle values in the part-throttle tables. Shouldn't these always match? If they don't match, what values are actually used at 100% throttle (which I'd assume is the same as "wide-open"?)?
Thank you! Just trying to understand these "inconsistencies" in the stock TCC apply/release speed tables!
