Measuring Transmission Slip
I want to know if there is a way to see the transmission slip when running a 5 speed Alison in 5th gear.
Is there a way with EFILive to measure or calculate the slip RPM? I had this ability with my old Banks System and it was kind of handy to see when you were starting to have problems with 5th gear. To be honest, until I totally smoked the tranny, I never saw any slip in gears 1-4, that is why I am specifically asking about 5th.
I do a lot of highway driving with trailers, campers, etc. where I am going too fast to take a downshift to 4th, so the engine will just drag along in 5th when you accelerate hard (hence you could see when there was too much foot in the pedal by the slip gauge). I have about 300 miles on the new transmission, and do not want to go through that pain again anytime soon....
