    RPM and Checklight issue with Mace tune with new auto box.

    Whatever inconvenience you're talking about twice now, see my post. It's fixed. Nothing to do with mace anything.

    Yeah, it wore out at about 320K. Stopped selecting gears properly. I've seen others online a few times wear out at about 300k so you're doing well. Car goes really well otherwise.

    VX Wagon 3.8 Auto. RPM at 100kmh ?

    Auto Drive Transmissions, with 4.4 stars from Google reviews. There's numerous points of 'discussion' that relate to each workshop, but what it comes down to is that it took me peeling myself off my sickbed and going out to a 100kmh piece of road to notice within a few seconds that something...

    For anyone interested the solution was 'Valve Body issue'. Something that should have either been got right the first time or when it went back the first time as far as I'm concerned. Not going to make a pointless issue about it now though if it works when I get it back.

    RPM and Checklight issue with Mace tune with new auto box.

    It's back getting a whole other trans built again, according to local workshop which sends it elsewhere. Would think trying different 'Valve bodies' would be the easier start. Told the local shop "it's not the original PCM". Reply was "we can see from diagnostic that it's sending a Shift...

    RPM and Checklight issue with Mace tune with new auto box.

    Thanks for getting back to me. Yes, I m still having this issue. Yes, it;s a trans related code. Diagnostic tool shows a signal from PCM telling the box to shift and I can count 3 gear changes, but the rpm ends up at 2600 instead of 1800 rpm in top gear. Could it possibly not be going into the...

    Installment about this. Workshop says the scan tool shows the PCM is instructing a gearchange but the change not happening. We can all feel 'something' like a change but I end up with this rpm too high. Workshop says the torque converter is 'locking in' (or something) but the box isn't...

    Hi. Need some help getting this last table to work please. I have 225/55 R16 tire has a Diameter of 654 entered and the diff and gear ratios done and the graph is right. This last table is still working on the default Tyre diameter of 680 and 6 gears. How do I get the table right please...

    No. Stock cluster. Never changed.

    Thanks. Obviously makes sense if the next gear is an overdrive. Impossible to fit a lesser overdrive?

    What's PPK? It's a MACE tune that's 10 years old. They haven't got back to me when I sent a msg from their website.

    Agreed. engine 'feels' like it's at that rpm too. Almost like the overdrive is missing and it's running 1:1 gearing. How hard would it be to do that to a 'box?
