when you say 5197 is disabled which part of 5197 is disabled. i hope that the tq request is not disabled
set that to all enabled and work on your ecm tune.D5196 -- values changed, but close to stock
D5197 -- disabled
Strange as this may seem, but my trans shifts nice, no matter part throttle or WOT. The TCM tune with the above values cured my 2-3 hangup and 3-4 flare when racing. My fluid is not burnt at all, and I havent seen any abnormal/large chunks in the filter at change intervals. Guess I really have been running on "borrowed time", eh?
Question: What would cause the trans to not downshift in Tow-Haul as hard as it normally would??? It downshifts like its in regular mode, not tow/haul.
Ben, I wasn't accusing your truck of being weak or slow, was just asking. The original poster is trapping 115 and in the mid 11s - even if it's a light truck that's not easy on the trans. For the guys needing a refresh with less power than you (with the exception of ATS guys) there is either a problem in their trans build or a major problem in their tuning. A truck that is 500-600hp and running 12s on bad trans tuning is going to be alot more forgiving to a trans than a 700+hp truck in the 11s. So you might have a TCM tune that does fine for 100K miles and 300 passes at that power level but will tear up a trans in a few passes at a higher power level. That's the only point I was making.

i can foresee some hard parts being left n the track the way it is....

Thanks gents. :hug:
I'll flash the trans back to stock tomorrow AM. Ya know...if I knew how to tune, I wouldnt have to depend on others to tune my truck.
Question: Since tuning information is moving faster than computer technology, and tuner acumen is growing exponentially because of it..... would this find qualify as another "It worked in 2008, but now we know better" kind of thing?
Dont worry about it, what everyone should worry about is looking at the tables in the TCM and making sure they are stock. I know its fun to blame it all on this "pink slippers" but he is not the only one with potentially dangerous tuning.
After reading all 8 pages I have one question-should I return it back to stock since its a high hp build but keep the higher shift points? I was told I was losing hp by allowing it to shift on the lower stock rpm settings.
Hey guys, I already asked RacingMike, but I'll put a general request out, too. Can someone PM me the FILENAME of the trans tune in question, so I can check my EFI and see if its something I've run/am running in my truck? I DO NOT WANT TO SEE THE TUNE...just the name of it.
So is this mainly a problem with the 5 speeds?
I think it was tony that said awhile ago that the tq disable was beta and they released it anyway.
it was in beta iirc up until the mid spring release last year. i had the beta version from slippers and was trying it out. then when i did the bbl upgrade the tables where there. now that i dont have it in and a decent tune to go with the stock tcm tuning i rarely notice defuel during normal driving.
