Thread: td5 auto lockup problem

A quick question ree the Nanocom.
Can the early versions be updated to read the automatic ECU?

Oh well, I was nearly right, here is an extract from Rave.

Sorry if I misled.....

"The torque converter can be locked and unlocked during driving to improve driveability, fuel consumption and gear changing. The torque converter will not be locked until the transmission has calculated that the oil temperature has reached a predetermined temperature. This is calculated from the engine coolant temperature via a software timer within the TCU, as the
transmission itself has no temperature sensor. The length of this timer depends on several variables, including the engine coolant temperature during cranking, but is approximately :

Engine ambient temperature Time taken for oil to warm up
25°C 0 minutes
0°C 7 minutes
-25°C 12 minutes"

Cheers,
Terry

Yes. the 2.08 firmware for the One has same module support as the Evo, but only has input recording on the Td5 Module.

Update..
Problem was in the torque converter, not holding pressure at times.
I had a new Low Stall Torque converter fitted & cannot recommend this enough, transformed the way the TD5 drives, fantastic.
Fluidrive do a custom low stall TC with bearing upgrade & billet stator,the spline upgraded from TC to trans.
Stronger Wider surface on the lockup clutch to
I was told the TC outer shell is reinforced where the flex plate bolts up also.
This has improved the 2200 rpm rumble also.
Like having a new feel to your old car...
best money spent yet, mine fitted in Bendigo but I think they get the TC done in Melbourne
Cheers all for their imput

And the cost, please?
