Auto Tranny Trainable???
After reading the thread that Xfire1 started about shifting the auto, I want to ask some of you autostick owners if you will try something.
Some of you say that your car will upshift on it's own at 6k.
Some say it won't.
Chrysler says that the computer on the Xfires is able to learn your driving habits (trainable?). When we bought our car it would NOT upshift on it's own, at 6k the Rev Limiter kicked in. After many times accidentally doing this, the car still won't upshift on it's own.
However, now if you just put it in drive, leave the shifter alone, and floor it, the car no longer shifts at 6k. It actually seems to bypass the rev limiter, and shifts up at around 6,600 rpm.
So try it and let me know which is true.
1. It is trainable to your driving habits.
2. Some are programmed different.
3. My tach is not accurate anymore.
4. I fried to many brain cells in my younger days. (Brain cells are like anything else, you've got to weed out the week ones somehow)
Thanks, Rotten
