Educate me on this transmission

[FordTechOne]

Thank you. I've got to get it in for some other small items also so I will ask them to do this. Is there anyway this can be done by me and not going to the dealer?

Yes! You’re better off doing it yourself anyway, the dealer might take shortcuts just to get it done.

Interesting the variety of experiences here. I put the Raptor into "sport" for the first time yesterday. Do the different modes change the TCU behavior?

The reason I ask, in "Sport" it seemed like the transmission had all the shift points wrong. It would seemingly "slam" into the next gear, but at the wrong speed, so I'd feel a sharp jolt of either accel or decel depending on which way it got it wrong.

In "Normal" it's pretty smooth - I don't generally think of the actual shift revs as something that it "learns"

FYI my hard gear in the 5th.

Absolutely terrible gear for the RAP

My generic "Blue Driver" scan tool cannot delete the Transmission Adaptive Tables. I can clear all codes I just can't do that. Will it still work for me or is there another Scan tool I should be buying?

Yes, download ForScan. The software is free, you just need a compatible adapter, which they list on the site. I have the OBD Link EX, it works well.

Yup I cleared the learning tables and my trans went from a mess to nearly perfect. After a few thousand miles it’s returned to its weird self. Time to clear again.

Had a hard downshift yesterday while driving up a steep hill and accelerating hard, the truck downshifted and the RPM's quickly went to over 6k and the tach went red. Got off the gas and all was fine, but I think it downshift to many gears. Anyone else experience anything similar?

Before driving aggressively what trans temp are you all targeting? I'm usually waiting to get over 140-150 before driving hard.

So mine does the clunk rarely. Notice its really only when the trans is cold though. On my 2020 AT4 it never did anything wrong. I imagine its the difference in programing for the 2 brands. my 21 Tremor had shifting issues and under acceleration at any speed or rpm it would shake the fricken truck. dont miss that haha.
