All,
Please forgive me if this is written somewhere, but I am new to tuning and I don't really know what exactly I am looking for.
I have a 2012 GMC Yukon with the 6.2 and a 6L80E.
After disabling DoD I have gotten rid all the shudder that I was feeling in the transmission, but I can still see the tach moving indicating TCC slip when it should be more steady.
My wife's cousin works in a trans shop and deals with a LOT of 6L80E transmissions that have failed due to a failed TCC clutch.
His recommendation is to replace the torque converter ASAP, but until that happens he recommends trying to tune out the flare as much as possible.
After logging, I am seeing ~90-120 rpm flare when going from coasting to accelerating on the highway. In the screenshot below it hits 122 rpm (102rpm "error") at ~40% throttle.
The trans quickly (~1-1.5 seconds?) settles it down to 20-50 rpm, and once I hit ~80mph or so the slip goes to zero and pretty much stays there.
My question is this:
I have been gradually upping the pressures in the "apply ramp" table, but don't see much affect.
Is the apply ramp the correct table to be adjusting or do I have this wrong? Or is +70kPa just not enough of a change to notice yet?

also, with regards to logging, I tried setting up a graph in VCM Scanner to mimic that table so I could see what areas of the map I was using when seeing slip. I couldn't get the vertical axis (torque) to register as anything but -17.0 no matter what parameter I tried.

I can post the log if it helps, but hopefully this is a simple question and I am just missing something obvious.
