    摘要: A method is described for controlling a powertrain of a vehicle. In particular, the method attempts to minimize transmission gear separation, or “clunk”. Under some circumstances, it is determined whether torque converter output speed has become greater than torque converter input speed while the torque converter was unlocked. Such a situation represents a change from positive powertrain output to negative powertrain output. If such a situation has occurred, under certain circumstances, the torque converter is then locked.

    摘要: A control strategy for a multiple-ratio transmission for an automotive vehicle comprising a shift valve system that responds to shift valve signals developed by a microprocessor controller, the controller being in communication with engine sensors indicating engine operating variables and transmission sensors indicating transmission operating variables, the shift valve system responding to shift signals developed by the microprocessor during coasting downshift of the vehicle from one gear ratio to a lower gear ratio with a closed engine throttle whereby torque reversals are avoided during coast-down, thereby eliminating inertia torque changes to improve the smoothness of coasting downshifts during cold engine operation.
