I'll give it a shot.Best not to "punch" the CVT or any drive by wire system. They don't quite know how to respond to a "step change" in input.
Modern systems work best with a steady moderate push to the floor.
The system "understands" that type of input much better and will give you surprisingly good acceleration.
Try it - you'll see.
20 up, 20 down, as stated in my post.How many Mississippi ?
That's a lot of fingers.20 up, 20 down, as stated in my post.![]()
I doubt it would increase your MPG, a tune up would be your best best if you haven't already done so. Heavy traffic is not good for MPG, so that could be your main problem.Is there any impact in MPG? Mine's doing 22-24 in heavy traffic driving (very low for a 2.0L I think).
Thanks!
I was thinking about the opposite, indeed: what if the procedure would affect MPG negatively. Hope not!I doubt it would increase your MPG, a tune up would be your best best if you haven't already done so. Heavy traffic is not good for MPG, so that could be your main problem.
It won't affect the MPG. what id does is smooths out the engine's (and CVT's) response to the gas pedal. Overall you get better driveability.I was thinking about the opposite, indeed: what if the procedure would affect MPG negatively. Hope not!
Even if MPG get worse, I'm very happy with the results! :Racing:
It works on all Calibers no matter what trim or transmission.Will this work on an SXT as well?
Ahhh,.....yah...................So the best technique is to do what the first post says? I read the first 8 pages without anything definite
