Transmission Adaptation (Relearn)
Transmission adaptation is a learning process in which the control unit adjusts its shift values to the wear of the transmission.
What is Transmission Adaptation (Relearn)?
It is needed after repairs or software updates. Diagnostic tools can start it. Some adaptations happen during driving. Some adaptations need the fluid at a specific temperature and a set driving cycle. Resetting adaptations without a reason can make shifting worse until the system learns again.
How it works
The control unit measures clutch engagement points and pressures and stores correction values.
Why it matters for your car
Wrong adaptation can cause harsh or delayed shifts. Follow the procedure exactly.
