my car is an auto 06 gto and when i step on it it shifts fine until it shifts over from 3 too 4th then my traction control goes on and then it dont shift normal. but after i turn my car off then back on its back to normal? what could it be?

GTOdave

keep your traction control button off...or are you saying that its off then goes back on once shifting?

ive tried tried taking the traction control off and when i step on it, the traction control starts too flash and it wont turn off until i restart my car. ( do u get what im trying to say?)

Try disconnecting the battery (-) cable for about 10 minutes to reset the pcm.

ohh ok i get it....yea do what ^^^^^ he said...restart the pcm..or if it continues find someone with hp tuners and have then delete your T/C completely and see if it still does it

GTOdave

if you dont drive your car in the winter or rain have it deleted man..there really is no need for it..just find someone with hp tuners or efi live or some kind of tuner to get rid of it..should fix it

or just pull the t/c fuse. thats wat i do at the track, its the only way besides tuning it out to completely turn it off.
if u have warranty and want to keep it just pull the fuse

blackgto6

if i pull out the t/c fuse it doesnt run correctly.

AWDTBSS

wat do u mean? my runs perfectly fine, it just says service brakes, service t/c, and my brake/abs/traction light stay on til i plug it back in

Call me crazy, but I think you should get it fixed instead of bandaid it... sounds like it is the sensor acting up or your 4th gear is slipping and the sensor detects the slipping in the transmission as if it where your rear tires breaking loose.

You can pay someone for the 2 credits / $100 it costs to use HP Tuners on your car and remove the T/C and still have the same issue.

How many miles do you have on the 4l65e in the GTO now and what kind of power to the wheels?

or if you have someone local that has one of the handheld programmers ie: diablosport they can turn it off just to see if it will help....

I would be more apt to think it has something to do with the TQ managment more so the the TC... When i reset my BCM i pull the BCM fuse and leave it out for a while. 30mins or more. If you just remove the battery term and put it back on right away it will still keep the settings.

You are out of warranty, but it might be a good idea to take it to the dealership and have them look at it. well worth the money rather then losing a trans...

I have a M6 so this is all JMO.

Good luck.
