    Default Using DVT on the Dyno tohold gear and TCC 2010 Camaro E38 and T436 speed

    I use the scanner and DVT on the dyno to hold 3rd gear and lock the convertor while logging engine PIDs on LS1's however cannot figure out how to do this on the 2010 A6 Camaro's. Is there a way?

    Same way, but for the Controller you have to select the T43 TCM.

    Hi Joe
    I use the scanner to log a variety of engine vitals for tuning and don't seem to see the Trans DVT when connected which makes sense as they are different controllers.
    Is there a way to use DVT on the T43 TCM while logging LS3 info for engine tuning?

    I had a Tahoe on the dyno yesterday and as much as I search and try it is evading me on how to control the T43 6spd to hold 3rd gear on the dyno.
    When I am scanning ECM parameters ( so I can see BEN, KR, etc) I don't seem to be able to see the trans to be able to lock the converter and force 3rd with the DVT controls.
    I have used the other brand to do this with a Camaro but I really like the engine "controls" with EFI Live.
    How are people holding a specific gear and controller the converter with these on the dyno

    I'll take a closer look.

    I don't think you can do both. You can adjust the downshift thresholds and TCC lockup speeds in the TCM tune so you can log engine parameters and hold third and TCC lock up. But I don't think you can log the ECM PIDs and use the DVT controls at the same time. It's one or the other.

    It seems that way, I couldn't get both simultaneously.
