my weekend rocked

saturday. sat and bored myself shitless with a heap of lessons for this army drivers course. came home, went for a mud bash sat nite

sunday: went to u pull it for a couple of bits, sold my roof rack to a mate in the arvo, then went for a big mud bash with luke and flick and a few of my mates

monday: went across town and worked on the skyline all day, then worked out i had homework from this drivers course, so went for a drive last night

today: RDO, finishing my homework off hehe

Damn ...

Stagea is stuck in 3rd gear. A/T light flashes at me and stag drives in 3rd gear (since lunchtime today). Had a service and shift kit installed by MV Auto 10,000kms ago ... whole car only 61,000kms old. Anyone got any ideas? I've already hit up the Stag section for an answer.

:happy:

Registered the silver Stag today, so I guess thats a sign to take the black stag off the road for a while. :ninja:

maybe the speed created by the downforce of the JDM MESH caused some to dislodge and wrap around you transmission dooflickey

i think it is related to the blue mesh....too much downforce, power, torque almost too much everything really with that BLUE MESH :happy:

i think since the blue mesh has given you too much power etc your transmission cannot handle it anymore.....time for more blue mesh and a better trans maybe.....

on another note check if your ecu hasnt gone into limp mode.....if using aftermarket ECU maybe check the data and see if there is something unusual in there....goodluck with it all ruby

No aftermarket ecu. Stock ecu does appear to be in limp mode. I've browsed the Stagea and Transmission threads and have a few options (although none are definite solutions). I'm going to start with the easiest solution and work my way up to the harder (expensive) solution, by checking the trans fluid level first. I doubt its the solenoids (and hope they're not) as the car is only 61,000kms old and MV serviced the box less than 10,000kms ago ... plus the shift solenoids are expensive!

If all else fails, I guess I'm doing that manual conversion sooner than I thought. I'll also check the Mv invoice for the warranty period and have them dianose the box problem. I'll drive the silver stag around in the meantime.

:(

    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
