VR6 AUTO GEARBOX DRIVING STYLES

[leemeg99 0]

THE CORRADO VR6 I OWN, 1994

CHANGES AT 4000 REVS, INTO 1,2,3,4

DOESN'T CHANGE UP BELOW THIS, IS IT NORMAL ?

 

DO THE ELECTRONICS REMEMBER PREVIOUS OWNERS DRIVING STYLE AND ADOPT THIS, IF SO HOW CAN I RESET THE MECHANISMS

 

THE CAR ONLY SEEMS TO RETURN 22MPG IS THIS RIGHT?

 

MANY THANKS

pardon???

 

 

:D

 

sorry yer caps lock is on which is the equivilent of shouting

 

 

 

anyway the G/box ECU from memory doesn't have a memory function such as remembering differing driving styles by different ppl............its possibly just needing a new sensor or more simply a change in autobox fluid

..........oh and 22mpg if its round town is reasonably good for an auto VR

You can reset the auto box by the following:

 

ignition on engine off

press the accelerator to the floor and hold for 10 seconds

release accelerator and start engine directly. Do not turn off before starting.

 

That will reset teh box. It adapts to your driving style so you will need to go through a brief setup using different gear changes.

blimey you learn something new every day................i was always under the impression it wasn't "adaptive" and just a conventional slushbox

22mpg around TOWN for an auto vr6 would be pretty darn good to be honest. Most manuals won't do that round town.

 

The autos are thirsty as fek!

double-6s, i get about 23-24 on mine, around town, but then the MFA is prob about a few MPG too high anyway.
