:D I'm hoping silycr, AdrianD, Jean and Clarky might know about your model exactly and can verify. A couple of the forementioned will know a lot about the diesel regearing hassle, the other two might be right up on the 4.7s, HO or not. For your model I think the speed sensors going off your abs tone rings, down at your back wheels, are sending the speed data to the ecu tcu. And that information is being used to diagnose and interpret what the engine and tranny should do. Then signals go out to the tranny and motor and gear changes are controlled as needed. I'm not sure if for some reason the ecu tcu system uses 'both' the transmission output speed sensor and the abs tone ring speed sensor to analyse and compute for outputs to the tranny and engine. I'll just note down how far out your readings/parameters are from stock, anyone feel free to go over my calcs: Standard gearing 3.78 Standard tyre diameter 29.3'' with circumference of 92" Your gearing 5.38 Your tyre diameter A. 37" with circumference of 116" Your tyre diameter B. 33" with circumference of 104" Ok. To begin with if your ecu tcu is programmed to think each 3.78 turns of the tranny output sensor equals 1 rotation of the abs tone ring...it's out by an additional 44% rotations, that's not using any SpeedoDrd or similar. Which if the computers are (I'm not sure) using both the rear tone rings readings and tranny output speed to compute what to do, 44% would surely have to be well out of any margins (if any) the electronic engineers would have allowed in the programming. Well, you'd think so. But, Then factor in your SpeedoDrd adjustment to get the speedo working correctly to gps. 29.3" tyre travels 92" per revolution. 37" travels 116" per revolution Purely tone ring pulse signal changing, you are making the speedoDrd change the signal up by 25% so the speedo reads correct. Even that 25% increase in speedo abs tone ring pulsing signal would probably be out too much still. Then, Compute the 44% ratio change (5.38 gears) with the 25% tone ring pulse increase from the SpeedoDrd... The tranny output sensor is sending a 44% too fast signal than oem (compared to wheel abs tone ring rpm), but SpeedoDrd has increased abs tone ring pulse also, by 25%. 44 - 25 = 19% difference, which is still probably out of specifications of the program. You'd think. That's with 37" tyres. Save you the reading for 33's, using the same math and logic, the end percentage outage going to the ecu tcu is 44 - 12 = 32% out. More out of spec than the 37's. Does it change gears slightly better with the 37's than the 33's, when you use the SpeedoDrd correctly set for each tyre size? I think it might. Only because the sensor pulse speed is closer to stock with the 37's on. Am I right. Just a slight hunch, but let us know. After all that. Can the pro's comment? Thoughts? Now I have to help miss 12 with algebra :rolleyes: |
Tyvokka,
I forgot to mention. I have standard gearing, front abs disconnected, and have the same lights on as you. No SpeedoDrd, i use GPS on the dash for speed reference. But she still changes gears real sweet. Take the SpeedoDrd off for a bit completely. Does the tranny shift great again? Go test for us. |

I'm pretty sure the CRD and the petrol models are quite different in their handling of transmission slip detection. I *think* the petrol models have output shaft speed detection while the diesel does not. So, on the diesel, if gear, engine RPM and wheel RPM don't compute as expected, it throws a MIL error. Again, supposition (based on lots of reading) the error is transmission slip.
