Thread: Help flair full throttle 4-5 shift

    Help flair full throttle 4-5 shift

    Lately, I've been getting a 4-5 flair only at full throttle. I think it could be because of the converter but I'm not sure. Here is the log flair in 5th.hpl

    Yep, genuine slip. Reported torque is low. Also needs more shift pressure. Then an adapt reset / preset.

    Just as concerning, did you notice your O2 switching lean half way through 3rd gear?

    Is reported torque being low bad?
    How much should I increase the shift pressure?

    I just looked at 2 previous logs and it shows 4-5 shift tcc pressure drops to 92psi, and another it drops to 94psi. Compared to this log it drops to 79psi. This log a lot sees a lot more TCC slip max of 101.9 vs 19.4 and 13.4. Should I raise the desired pressure to fix it?

    Yeah, #2 spark plug shows lean so I'm getting the engine tune checked soon.

    You will need to adapt reset / preset

    Thank you, I'll give it a try once the lean issue is gone.
    I see just the shift pressures were increased. Will the increase of shift pressure prevent the converter from slipping too?

    More than just the shift pressure was done. Converter not touched.

    Ok I see I didn't look in the engine section. I sort of understand the changes in the tourqe model, but what is the purpose of the changes in the tourqe management area?

    Here is the compare log from the changes you made to his tune.
    Am I reading this wrong, or are there changes to the 'Engine'?
    Thanks,

    There are a few recent posts on this Forum, regarding the compare feature having issues.

    This may depend on what software version that you are using, and what software version the file was saved with.

    Show me a good log please. Sometimes there is nothing you can do, and it may also be a bit of noisey data too. I'll have a look.

    Here's a log I just did. 3-4 4-5.hpl
    The first message in this thread has another log you can check out.
    I also know its supposed to slip but the rpms flare up a noticeable amount.

    Still a slight flare at the end of the 4-5. Have bumped up the 4-5 shift pressure a little more.

    Torque converter. I have put in some experimental settings. If you are able to do another 3-4, 4-5 run like you just did I'd be keen to see if there has been an improvement. Would like to see the log ASAP just to make sure its healthy. Basically the jist is it should apply full pump pressure to the converter.

    Did you mean to attach a tune? Because I don't see anything.


    - Ok got it I'm gonna drive it for a little so it relearns and I should have a log up in a little.
