    The other problem is that your PT shift tables cross (in four places)... they should not cross anywhere, see attached graph:

    At any TPS % value, the order of the shift table should be as follows
    (from top to bottom as you look at them stacked onto the same graph):
    3->4
    4->3
    2->3

    3->2
    1->2
    2->1


    Do the same with WOT shift points.

    3->2 curve should be above 1->2 curve;
    4->3 curve should be above 2->3 curve;

    this can be summarized as: the curves cannot cross anywhere;

    if they cross anywhere, then you will not be able to predict what gear the PCM selects when the operating point hits the cross.

    A4 shift table spreadsheet is here.
