Condition

Some customers may comment on the following conditions:

    • A 4-5 upshift slip/flare that results in a harsh shift or clunk at the end of the shift.
    • An illuminated MIL where a DTC P0756 is found as a history code in the TCM.

Correction

A revised transmission calibration has been developed to address both of these issues. Reprogram the TCM with an updated software calibration. This new service calibration was released with TIS satellite data update version 3.5 or later, available March 20, 2006 (March 22 in Canada). As always, make sure your Tech 2® is updated with the latest software version.

After reprogramming the TCM, Service Fast Learn Adapts must be performed using the Tech 2®. Check and clear all DTCs that may have set as a result of the programming process.
