Adjusting auto box up shifts


DiscoTDi

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know or heard of anyone successfully adjusting the auto box to up shift at lower revs. The standard mapping seems to keep the engine spinning over at higher than necessary revs. Even on gentle throttle the up shifts are around 2000 RPM and the engine always feels busy.

Cheers

You should be able to tweak the kickdown cable setting a bit but I don't think it will make too much difference as the limiting factor will be the torque converter stall speed which will be above 2000rpm. Also, much below 2000rpm and a Tdi hasn't got much oomph at all so you would quickly end up with something gutless if you did manage to bring it down.
