How can I get my car to relearn my driving.

[Clselby]

My Sonic lt has 60,000. How can I get it to relearn my driving?

 

[Natesriv]

? what do you mean. An automatic?

Might try removing negative battery cable for a day. That will drain memory...I THINK

Guys?

 

[Clselby]

Yes, an automatic.

How would I get it to relearn the shifting? The TCM.

 

[Natesriv]

that's why I'm thinking undoing the battery "drains" any internal power & memory. I don't think the TCM uses flash memory...
Are you having problems?

There's a bunch of experts here, you'll have a bunch of replies soon!

I just feel like sometimes when it shifts it should have waited a lil longer because when it shifts the rpms are so low in that next gear.

Would just like it to relearn my driving. Would that be something id have to get the dealer do?

 

[Natesriv]

I'm not sure a tranny ever STOPS learning...
It is designed to seek out the lowest gear for fuel economy though...

 

[Clselby]

It will shift and the rpms are really low and you can hear this lifters rattling, i assume this is normal?

With Trifecta and red cable you can delete learned memory on autos. I used to do it before taking the sonic drag racing. Delete then drive like a maniac

 

[Clselby]

I'm not too sure what any of that is, so that probably wouldn't be good for me to be messing with

The PCM doesn't "learn the driver", but rather learns the engine and transmission quirks and tendencies, and compensates for that.
It has no way of learning or predicting driver habits from one moment to the next.
