Default I have a question on changing TC lockup.

when In Edit how do you go about changing lockup in 3rd gear. I would like for it not to lock up untill fourth.
right now when it shifts into Fourth it is allready locked up, and it wants to release and lockup and then release and lock up again.
figured I could keep it unlocked in third and just have it lock up in fourth.
when changing this do I need to change the third gear apply cells, and the third gear release cells or just the 3rd gear apply cells.
and do I do this for all 3 tables

Normal mode MPh vs.%TPS

Performance mode MPh vs.%TPS

Cruise mode MPh vs.%TPS

Thanks,
Daniel

it all depends on when you want it to lock up. are you talking about lock-up at WOT?

Look at the lock up apply and release settings (mph) for 2nd gear and set the 3rd gear tables the same. Check every table under A4 TCC.

That is correct. Also, I based my reply on you saying you want NO lock up at all in 3rd.

ss slp2, i logged about everything but iac counts, you sure you are not dropping below the in gear rpm level (locked up) causing the IAC to buck wild?

I will go do some flat run testing and log IAC this time.
