Switching manual to auto then odd shifting behaviour
Posted: Wed May 04, 2016 8:55 am
Controller is more or less performing OK now - but I have problems with the auto/manual modes.
If I go from auto to manual it works fine, paddles function, everything is good. However strange things happen when I try to go back into auto mode.
Pull both paddles and sometimes it goes into auto fine. However, and this seems to happen if you have been driving for a while and have gone from auto to manual to auto a few times, when you switch back to auto it randomly changes down when it shouldn't soon after going back into auto mode. If you leave it it will change down again.
Rather concerning...
Attached a log showing this happening, starts off in manual, gear 3.
At 21064 I change up manually to 4th.
At 21071 I pull both paddles to go back into auto mode.
At 21072 it changes down to 3rd - no reason, I am above the speed required for 4th in my tables, and low TPS.
At 20173 i go back into manual and 21075 change up to 4th.
This continues to happen until you stop and restart the engine.
I have more than one data log of this happening too - on one occasion I was travelling at around 35mph, switch out of manual to auto and it decides to change down all the way to 1st gear before I realised what was happening and then put it back in manual to change back up.
This isn't helping build any trust....
