    摘要: A transmission includes a selectable one-way clutch with an active state and a passive state. To avoid occupant discomfort and hardware damage, transitions from the passive state to the active state must only be commanded when no or very little slip is present across the selectable one-way clutch. Several methods are presented to eliminate slip, depending on vehicle speed. When the vehicle is stationary, full engagement of a clutch that causes slip to be proportional to vehicle speed eliminates slip. When the vehicle is moving backwards, partial engagement of the above clutch eliminates slip. When the vehicle is moving forwards, full engagement of all but one clutch of a tie-up condition and partial engagement of the remaining clutch of the tie-up condition brings the vehicle to a stop and eliminates slip.

    摘要: A hydraulically controlled park system disengages a parking pawl in response to engagement of particular shift elements. When the vehicle is one a grade, greater force may be required to dis-engage the pawl, potentially leading to a failure to dis-engage. The controller avoids this failure by engaging an uphill gear ratio and controlling the transmission input torque to transfer load from the parking pawl to the gearing prior to engaging the shift elements that dis-engage the pawl. Following dis-engagement of the parking pawl, the transmission is in a tie-up condition in which the output shaft is held stationary by shift elements. The controller transitions from this tie-up condition to the selected gear ratio by releasing shift elements.

    摘要: A vehicle includes a transmission having a torque converter, a device configured to generate line pressure, and at least one fluid path connecting the device in fluid communication with the torque converter. A controller is programmed to, responsive to an engine-off time exceeding a threshold and a parameter indicative of departure being present, command the device to generate line pressure so that fluid is supplied to the torque converter. The device may be a transmission pump or an accumulator.

    摘要: A transmission park mechanism is hydraulically actuated. Specifically a controller releases the parking pawl by commanding engagement of particular shift elements at an elevated line pressure. The process of transitioning from Park to a Drive or Reverse condition may involve several sequential steps. To reduce the delay between driver selection of Drive or Reverse and completion of the engagement, it is advantageous to raise the line pressure in response to depression of a brake pedal, prior to movement of the shift lever. To limit the adverse fuel economy impact of increased line pressure, the line pressure is lowered again if the driver does not move the shift lever soon after depressing the brake pedal.
