Anyways, let me know if you have any luck after resetting adaptations! Hope you manage to fix your issue. Also, how do you go about doing this as I might as well give this a try.

Merry Christmas

Can you not use Bootmod3 to flash back to the GTS tune? If all else fails that’s what I’ll do. I like XHP overall so hoping not to have to do that.

You can also use Bootmod3 to reset learned adaptations for the transmission specifically, it’s under the diagnostics tab.

There is a lot of customization in XHP so part of me wants to start slowly messing with one setting, or two setting if I do tq punch/reduction, I’ve just been too busy/lazy as of late. You can also alter the shift maps so maybe I just need to alter the 5-6 up shift and I’ll be fine, idk.

Then there’s always a custom trans flash as well but I have mixed feelings about that given my stock trans and tame mods, seems unnecessary.

Merry Christmas to you as well!

Yep I followed the 2/3rd tq rule originally which would have meant I set TR to 450 since I am running stage 1 bm3 93 map. However, 450 definitely felt slower than 300 for some reason.

Like you I found stage 3 just ridiculously aggressive especially on downshifts which was upsetting the car under braking for example. Stage 2 is much smoother but maybe shifts are a bit slower I can’t really tell anymore!

I think I’m going to uninstall xHP, flash back to stock ECU tune and flash xHP stage 2 back on with default values to see how it responds.

ra2289 I was under the impression the GTS/CS TCU Tune in BM3 is not the latest or something along these lines as I thought I saw several posts with people having issues with this and then getting Kubax or Alex Alpine to fix it with their flash. My car is 2019 so I would have to flash CS but worried about running into issues. Did you use the BM3 GTS TCU tune previously?

Thanks re: reset adaptations, I think I might try this also.

I see what you’re talking about from the other thread you posted in. I wasn’t aware of that until now.

Yeah I used the GTS TCU with BM3 and Kubax but I have a 2016. There were some things I didn’t love about it but I didn’t have any errors or malfunctions.
