Driver influenced features of AGS
The adaptive drive program is based primarily on throttle input. The throttle information
comes from the ECM (DME) via the CAN bus. The TCM continuously monitors the throttle
input for:
• The current throttle position
• The rate of change in pedal movement
• The number of acceleration requests
• The number of kickdown requests
Drive away Evaluation
The AGS system selects the appropriate shift program based on the amount of acceleration
that occurs during takeoff. When driving away under full throttle the transmission will
shift from XE to E.
Kick Fast Feature
Based on these inputs, the AGS will select one three different driving programs as follows:
• Extreme Economy – Shift points are a low speeds for maximum comfort and economy
• Economy – The shift points are raised for more performance with economy as priority
• Sport – The shift points are higher to take advantage of full engine performance.
