    Torque Management Maxed ?

    Checking a tune from someone else, I noticed alot of the torque values compared to the factory are a lot higher! Can values this high cause an issue anywhere being maxed out? Or is it normal just to max all of these values.

    OK cool. I mainly asked because all of sudden it got ABS / traction control faults and was wondering if these max values caused it. And I was little worried maxing it can damage the trans in some way. Time for a new abs sensor.

    Put the max torque back to stock in the traction control setting. Too many people misunderstand what that does.

    Default trans limit too. put back to stock.

    Thanks. that is the reason i asked, i never originally did these values. I just noticed these values after getting random ABS / TCS faults.

    Is there a chance these max values have cause Electronic Brake Control Module to play up? Showed codes U0100 - U0140 / C0242. Or its just likely a sensor as its very common in these cars too (Pontiac G8 LS3)

    Will definitely put these back to default.

    I leave them all maxed out, don’t touch the etc switch & fuel cut for the Traction control. Leave it alone. You can max the transmission as long as you don’t put the shifts too hard. You can max out everything :>

    The only thing I can see that was touched from factory under TCS, is the Max Torque has been raised from 650Nm to 1192Nm

    Have added screenshot to get an idea on what was modified from factory in green.
