June 26, 200718 yr so, going along, floor it... and it sits are ~ 3000 rpm, it sounds like it wants to go.. but it doesn't,..... so testing... put it in '2' and hit is.. and it does the same thing put it in '1' and it rockets. so... it's not shifting right, any ideas? the engine makes plenty of power when you tell it what gear to be in.
June 26, 200718 yr Yah I don't know. I think that's just how the 4eat phase II is controlled. I notice that in '00obw too. Sometimes even when you do punch it and it feels like it should downshift to second it doesn't. It just sits there and slowly winds up. Meanwhile you're stuck waiting for the thing to get up a little further into the powerband, 'cause it don't make much power below 3000rpm. The 4eat phase I's will downshift in a heartbeat. They might have done it to improve mileage, I think it does say for the Phase II it likes to hold a higher gear. Supposedly the phase II does still have the 'power' mode and it does consider the rate of change on the throttle, like slowly pressing down vs punching it.
