I'm a little new to this "tune" thing so, be gentle...

What exactly are "adaptations" and how are they, reset?


Cheers!

On the "Diagnostics" tab you will see a button "Reset Adaptations". There are things that the computer learns from the driver, like how we use the pedal to request load from the engine and trans, how air flows in and exhaust out, and other bits used for logic decisions. Many affect how the DCT shifts and how power ramps up. Exactly what adaptations are learned and used is determined by the tune's programmer (confirmed by Cary).

There is no "bad side" to resetting adaptations, especially when trying to fix something thats acting weird.
