  • Patent number: 10767759
    Abstract: A method of adjusting and using operating parameters of a transmission of a vehicle may include accessing a stored list of clutch parameters, performing a dynamic condition procedure while the vehicle is driven to revise minimum on-coming apply pressure for each friction element based on a sensed performance of an element within the vehicle powertrain, storing the modified minimum on-coming apply pressures, and operating the vehicle. A related transmission control device operates a transmission using parameters obtained during a dynamic condition procedure.

  • Patent number: 10100922
    Abstract: A method of adjusting operating parameters of a transmission of a vehicle may include accessing a stored list of clutch parameters; performing a static condition procedure to revise the clutch parameters; and performing a dynamic condition procedure to further revise the clutch parameters. The method may be performed by a transmission control device for the vehicle, the vehicle having a powertrain including an engine, the transmission with a plurality of solenoid actuated friction elements, and sensors. The static condition procedure and dynamic procedures may be performed incrementally, and the static condition procedure may be performed more than once to fine tune the results.
