I have been playing with the torque management table in the Uprev,and logging my slippage so since I have the line pressure up pretty high it has stop slipping but we all know it probably won't last.

I can't believe it AT tranny already experiencing slippage within a 2 year time fraME. Stories like this is what scares me to invest in a FI application.

1. So you're no longer experiencing (slippage/tranny problems)?


2. Was the FIX due to UPREV Adjusting the line pressure on your TQ management Table?


3. How you're experiencing higher Temperature, 200 Degrees, with a Transmission Cooler + Fan ? But yet a member 'ANMVQ' has only seen 185 Degrees

Thank you for the responses, much appreciated Baer. I've 7 AT myself, which is why I asked you those questions. I'm highly interested in purchasing the GTM 1.5 SC KIT but a little nervous due to hearing stories about Transmission issue on the AT.

This can't be the first you've heard of this? It's widely known and highly disscused that the clutch plates in the higher gears can't take the higher torque. It's not a huge deal just part of the game and there are fixes for it. Tranns cooler, increased line pressure, upgraded valve body and fully built tanns.
